Black and white portrait of Nathan.

In 2015, a visionary journey in the crypto markets began, led by a former global head of analytics and a partner at a top-tier consulting firm, Nathan Sage. Transitioning to a regulated fund manager, Nathan channeled his deep analytical acumen into algorithmic trading.

For a period of 3 years, we swiftly positioned ourselves at the forefront of the industry. By investing in cutting-edge technology and recruiting top industry talent, we enhanced our trading capabilities significantly.

In 2019, we disrupted the market norms by offering our institutional-grade algorithms to the general public. Our algorithms quickly reached customers in 75 countries in just 6 weeks and saw our trading volumes increase to excess of $1 billion daily.

Along this journey, we encountered significant hurdles for our own business. Our model relied on costly and often unreliable brokerage services that were inhibiting our ability to trade. This challenge catalysed our bold move to establish our own digital brokerage.

We’ve worked hard to develop our robust technology infrastructure and forged close-knit direct partnerships with the industry’s strongest market makers and clearing houses to manage borrowing, and execute both long and short positions in the crypto markets.

To 2023, we’ve handled billions in trades, offering reliable, low latency, minimal slippage and deep liquidity services to our network of clients. This has not only enhanced our operational efficiency but also significantly reduced costs that has granted us greater control over pricing for our clients.

Today, our integrated network of top-tier liquidity providers, lenders, settlement services, banks, and custodial solutions addresses the myriad challenges faced by digital asset market professionals. By offering the best prices, a broad selection of liquidity options, and comprehensive trading services through a single account, we provide our clients with unparalleled advantages in the cryptocurrency arena.
