I'd like to start a crypto exchange in an unserved region. I do believe the company will be profitable and can expand with the right team...
I'm a little confused, you want to build a decentralized exchange yet you seek for profit for your company than be a useful and unique exchange? There are already tons of trading platforms that were both decentralized and has something unique that they can offer. Just on the recent months, there are tons of AMM and Swap Exchanges which then resolves the complexity of current exchanges. Since you already had a goal to create one, what would be a future that would be unique on your platform and cannot really be seen nor experienced on using the other current and running exchanges?
It is good to achieve a goal that would benefit not only you and your company but your exchange's users. But it is also worth to remember that new upcoming exchanges must exceed the current features of trading platforms. Good luck!
