Today is the 10th anniversary of the Nasdaq OMX deal that transformed Nasdaq and set the foundation for its timely position as a leading purveyor of financial technology around the world.
The OMX deal gave Nasdaq a global exchange and clearing technology business. It helped Nasdaq put down permanent roots in Stockholm, where Nasdaq before had had difficulty establishing a permanent beachhead in Europe.
For me, it always seems Nasdaq was trying to match the moves of NYSE in a game of catch-up. However, with the OMX deal, that changed. And now with Adena Friedman leading Nasdaq, the company is well positioned for the changes that are happening around the world in established and new markets.
Bob Greifeld has left Nasdaq and Magnus Böcker has left this life, but the legacy they left behind is something they both should be proud of. This was a transformative deal for both firms and made Nasdaq and OM truly global players.~JJL
Here are three stories related to the Nasdaq OMX anniversary:

Crypto's Hottest Hires Aren't Millennials. They're Banking Cops.
Annie Massa - Bloomberg
Recent appointments of notable regulators are just the start; Ventures also have recruited prosecutors and other authorities
Veteran Wall Street enforcers are landing new roles on a wild frontier: virtual currencies. A growing number of crypto startups are adding former regulators and other government authorities to their payrolls, a practice that could help them head off or prepare for stricter rules. Ventures have snapped up ex-prosecutors, national security officials and at least one former senior diplomat -- all of whom may prove handy as nations decide whether to embrace or outlaw digital money.

After, say, five years, we would see which of them had been the most canny in playing this financial game.
