Job Description
We are a venture-backed start-up on a mission to revolutionize how the world interacts with cryptocurrency. Our goal is to make crypto assets accessible to everyone, bridging the gap between the rapidly evolving digital asset ecosystem and traditional financial institutions that drive global payments.
Our talented team is developing a seamless application layer that enables users to explore a wide array of digital assets that have typically been available only to crypto enthusiasts. With years of experience from leading firms in the crypto space, our founding team has successfully launched numerous global on and off-ramps.
