MG Stover LLC, a pioneer in institutional digital-asset technology and services, has acquired Asymmetric Information, Inc., an AI-powered portfolio and risk analytics firm serving institutional crypto investors. The deal adds real-time portfolio intelligence, risk management and AI-driven scenario analysis to OTTO, MG Stover's crypto-native institutional data platform. Asymmetric's engineering team joins MG Stover to accelerate the build-out of OTTO as an AI-native intelligence layer for digital-asset operations.

Why it matters

Institutional cryptocurrency portfolios now span spot, derivatives, DeFi, staking and venture investments, creating a data and risk challenge that legacy tools weren't built to solve. MG Stover has spent more than a decade building what many in the industry consider the most trusted foundation of reconciled, audit-ready digital-asset data, servicing more than $40 billion in assets. Asymmetric brings AI-driven analytics purpose-built for this complexity. Together, they aim to deliver the first platform that combines trusted institutional data with real-time AI-powered insight – from reconciliation to risk intelligence – in a single workflow.

What they’re saying

“We've built the data foundation. The next phase is intelligence: using AI to turn reconciled data into real-time insight, foresight and decision support. Asymmetric's exceptional engineering team knows how to build and ship sophisticated AI-driven analytics for real-world institutional portfolios. This acquisition positions OTTO to become the operating system for institutional crypto.”

— Matt Stover, Founder & CEO, MG Stover

“Institutional crypto portfolios have outgrown the tools built to manage them. Fund managers are stitching together fragmented data across dozens of systems just to understand their own exposure. Combining Asymmetric's analytics with MG Stover's operational backbone gives institutions a single source of truth, with AI-driven risk intelligence layered on top, at exactly the moment the market is demanding greater rigor.”

— Joe McCann, Founder & CEO, Asymmetric Information
