Mission

We are building the best in class CLOB Perp DEX on Monad.

Make history developing the world's first truly decentralized fully on-chain perpetuals exchange, built around a high-performance Central Limit Order Book! Others have tried or claim to have done this, but they implemented on application chains or use techniques that skirt the bounds of decentralization theater.

We're building on Monad, a performant block chain designed from the outset for high-performance decentralized finance applications. Our team has a legacy of interesting Dapp and DeFi firsts; highlights include:

  • World's first decentralized mobile messenger, featuring group chats and Publishing Dapp integrations
  • Anonymized push notification system allowing protocols to communicate with address holders anonymously
  • Deployed an ultra gas-efficient Time-Weighted Automated Market Maker protocol on Ethereum L1

We’re funded by Tier-1 VCs, angels, founders, and leading market makers. We are assembling an A-Team of engineers, business development, and designers to help us launch a best in class perpetuals exchange experience worldwide.

  • Return on investment - get in on the ground level, this is a risky endeavor but if successful the reward will be remarkable.
  • Team - we are a small, aggressive team with a remarkable history in blockchain, well-funded, with exceptional partners.
  • Culture - we’re interested in our work and want you to be too—you won’t be barraged with meetings, just interesting discussions in an efficient work environment.
