We Were One of the First

We’ve been around since 2014, which in this industry, makes us veterans. We’ve seen a few storms and come out the other side. We know what to do, and what not to.

Notably, you deploy your funds, not us. No lending, staking, trading… nothing. We’re not a trading house, we’re an exchange.
