Who we are.
Mission, vision, values, and the people running it.
Best assets, best depth.
Institutional-quality liquidity for decentralized venues. Market structure advisory for the teams running them.
Transparent markets, fair for everyone in them.
Today's on-chain venues are fragmented and the desks serving them are mostly extractive. We are working towards a benevolent oligopoly in markets. Better structure helps everyone honest: the venue, the takers, and the makers.
What we hold to.
We publish the methodology behind our research. Partners see the data we collect on their venues, in full.
Markets work when the incentives align.
Quotes hold under load.
We engage in market design and liquidity bootstrap with protocol founders.
The four of us.
