## About

Founded in 2021 by Eduard Jubany Tur, and Naman Sehgal, and based in Spain, ZKX operates as a strategy trading platform that develops protocol derivatives built on StarkNet for the cryptocurrency market. In July 2022, ZKX raised USD 4.5 million in Seed funding from new investors Alameda Research, Amber Global Limited Caballeros, Angel DAO, Capital, Cluster Capital, and others. 

The company provides a permissionless derivatives trading protocol based on StarkNet that allows users to trade assets and derivatives on web3 environments with Defi (Destructured Finance). The company develops frameworks to address Defi market challenges such as bootstrapping liquidity, reliance on oracles, and centralized listing mechanisms, and it also provides complex financial instruments as swaps. To make trading easier for the general public, the company provides gamified leaderboards and liquid governance.

The company intends to use the July 2022 funding to expand its growth and further develop its platform's features.
