The Investment

Cryptoasset trading volumes and decentralized finance are rapidly growing as adoption ticks up across both retail and institutions.

While cryptoassets continue to gain adoption globally, leading to rising trading volumes and a growing need for sophisticated trading venues for professional investors, decentralized exchanges and decentralized exchange aggregators are rapidly gaining market share versus their centralized counterparts.

Inspired by the success of aggregators in traditional e-commerce and financial markets, Mounir built Paraswap, a middleware layer that introduces connectivity between various decentralized finance protocols, applications and exchanges. Paraswap’s flagship product is a decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator that provides the best execution speed and prices to users by routing orders over multiple decentralized exchanges on the Ethereum blockchain, which it offers through its own platform (B2C) and through partner integrations leveraging its API, SDK and smart contract (B2B2C).
