## About

Based in the US, Spicenet is a technology company providing a permissionless shared liquidity layer for high-performance trading applications, aimed at enhancing trading efficiency in decentralized finance environments. In December 2024, Spicenet raised USD 3.4 million in seed funding co-led by Hack VC and Magnus Capital, with participation from TPC Ventures, Public Works, Wagmi Ventures, DoraHacks, P-OPS team, and The Rollup.

Spicenet primarily offers a permissionless shared liquidity layer designed for high-performance trading applications. Its core product, the Velocity execution engine, enables rapid transaction processing under one millisecond, facilitating gas-free trading through native paymasters. This infrastructure supports various end-use cases, including the development of modular trading applications, financial instruments, and markets, aimed at enhancing capital efficiency and liquidity within decentralized finance (DeFi). Spicenet's technology is beneficial for developers and traders in the cryptocurrency markets, enabling them to build and scale applications without the burdens of traditional transaction fees and latency issues. 

The revenue model for Spicenet revolves around transaction fees, partnerships, and collaborative integrations within the DeFi ecosystem. Clients utilizing the Velocity execution engine can engage in trading activities, where Spicenet collects fees based on the volume of transactions processed through its platform. 

Spicenet is focusing on launching new products, including enhanced versions of the Velocity engine, with anticipated releases in early 2025. The company plans to expand its market presence in Asia, particularly targeting Japan and South Korea, by 2026. The recent funding of USD 3.4 mn will be utilized to support these product developments and market expansion efforts, enhancing their technology infrastructure and marketing capabilities.
