Top Blockchain / Cryptocurrency Startups in New York City, NY

GTE is the world's fastest decentralized exchange. We are building GTE, the Global Token Exchange, a fully decentralized, vertically integrated trading platform. By merging decentralized finance technology alongside centralized finance trading venues, we have created an exchange that has the same performance characteristics as popular exchanges such as the NASDAQ and NYSE while remaining non-custodial, composable, and permissionless. GTE is founded on the belief that the the world's assets will become increasingly tokenized and that the exchanges we transact on will evolve alongside that growing trend. We embrace the skepticism that comes with innovation and deeply understand the balance between cutting-edge technology and delightful products. GTE relies on key technical components: a fully onchain central limit order book, a low-latency trading system tailored for market makers, profitable market-making strategies, and a robust, real-time indexer on an emerging layer two blockchain, MegaETH. GTE presents the opportunity to tackle complex problems at the intersection of real-time data, trading systems, and cutting-edge DeFi market design.
