I liked this project so made an account just to share this comment.


Problem

The complex crypto space makes it difficult for beginners to start trading. Current platforms impose high barriers to entry, because they often lack usability, transparency and education. As a result, many people are discouraged to adopt the crypto economy.


Mission

We are building a user-friendly crypto exchange that combines social trading with a hybrid-decentralized architecture to help people safely trade crypto assets. We bridge the gap between the crypto economy and the traditional world of finance to shift towards a digital and decentralized society.
 

I am very in favour of focusing on beginners and making it as easy and accessible as possible. The cognitive dissonance in a speculative market is immense and everyone has the fear of losing a significant portion of their money stuck in the back of their head all the time - regardless of experience and stake levels.

I am a bit skeptical given the competition and "bandwagon" in this space. For example, how does would it compare to Iconomi? They have solid backings and track record of pumping out good products. Can it fight through the big players already in this meta-trading space?
