Hedge fund Millennium Management hired Benoit Bosc, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. oil trader who briefly moved to cryptocurrencies, for a crude-trading role, people familiar with the matter said.

Bosc will start his new position on David Zimbler’s team later this year and will be based in New York, the people said. He had spent nearly a decade trading oil at Goldman before becoming global head of product at cryptocurrency-trading firm GSR.
