TradeConnect
The blockchain-based multi-asset trading network.
Global trading is stuck in the past
Online brokers revolutionised trading by connecting retail traders with the markets. This works through a network of intermediaries, all taking a cut of the pie. Blockchain is now making this model obsolete.
The Problems
EXCESSIVE CHARGES
With so many intermediaries involved, global trading creates credit and financial risk.
UNJUST INFLUENCE
Traditional broker models can have undue influence on both price-making and trade execution.
OUTDATED TECHNOLOGY
Global trading is stuck in models that are decades old, resulting in lack of flexibility.
TRADERS FUNDS ARE AT RISK
Transferring funds to the broker’s account adds an unnecessary element of risk.
TradeConnect will bring trading to the future
Decades of financial award-winning experience have led to the development of a cutting edge trading network that will change the world of trading forever. Based on the Blockchain, TradeConnect will allow traders to trade any financial asset instantly and without intermediaries.
The TradeConnect solution
REDUCED FEES WITH BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
TradeConnect connects traders to a global digital trading pit, where the only commission paid is a connection fee, where traders receive rewards in return for adding liquidity in the system.
CUTTING EDGE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
The innovative technology in TradeConnect will lead to a network with a level of flexibility the markets have never seen before. Digital Personas and unique cutting edge AI are just the beginning.
DIRECT TRADING WITHOUT INTERMEDIARIES
TradeConnect will allow individuals and institutions to trade directly with one another, taking out intermediares and creating a balanced playing field where players large and small trade as equals.
FULL TRANSPARENCY ON BLOCKCHAIN
