He is the Co-Founder of [Paimon Finance](https://iq.wiki/wiki/paimon-finance) and the Founder and Portfolio Manager of Miles GL Capital Management, with previous roles at Cambridge Information Group, The Invus Group, and UBS. \n\n## Education\n\nLiu earned Bachelor's degrees in Computer Science and Economics from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and a Master’s in Management Science and Engineering from Columbia University. [\\[4\\]](#cite-id-ka3anygytf) \n\n## Career\n\nLiu began his career at UBS as a Summer Intern on the Muni Desk in 2011. From 2012 to 2016, he worked as an Analyst at The Invus Group, a European family office, where he supported Invus Financial Advisors and fund-of-hedge-funds activities. From 2016 to 2022, Liu served as Investment Director at Cambridge Information Group, a U.S. family office, where he focused on leveraged buyouts. Between 2018 and 2020, he was a Board Observer at Bach to Rock: America’s Music School, and from 2018 to 2022 he served as a Board Observer at both The School of The New York Times and Sotheby’s Institute of Art. In 2018, Liu founded Miles GL Capital Management LLC, where he serves as Founder and Portfolio Manager. The firm focuses on TMT long/short equity. In 2025, Liu co-founded [Paimon Finance](https://iq.wiki/wiki/paimon-finance), where he works to develop the [real-world asset](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas) platform. [\\[6\\]](#cite-id-0u7zfioxf3) \n\n## Interviews\n\n### Paimon Finance\n\nIn a November 2025 interview with ChainCatcher, Liu discussed [Paimon Finance’s](https://iq.wiki/wiki/paimon-finance) development as a [real-world asset](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas) platform founded by professionals with Wall Street backgrounds. He described the project’s initial focus on bringing traditional financial assets onto [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) through tokenization, expanding beyond assets such as U.S. Treasuries into areas including equity and private credit. Liu outlined a long-term, three-stage vision: Paimon Asset to bring assets on-chain, Paimon Exchange for decentralized spot and perpetual trading, and Paimon [Layer 2](https://iq.wiki/wiki/layer-2) for [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) and custody infrastructure. He also discussed how the team’s financial industry relationships could provide access to assets such as shares in SpaceX, xAI, and Stripe, as well as private credit from firms such as Blackstone. Liu described a shift from an initially business-focused approach toward a more community-oriented model through the Launchpad, allowing users to participate in the design and pricing of tokenized assets. Using [Paimon’s](https://iq.wiki/wiki/paimon-finance) SpaceX SPV Token as an example, he explained that the underlying equity remained held through an SPV and fund structure while the on-chain product represented an investment in that structure, with compliance documentation, audits, custody arrangements, and other verification mechanisms intended to provide information about the underlying assets and manage associated risks.
