Hong Yea, co-founder and CEO of GRVT, is excited by the potential of his platform’s recent developments in the sphere of regulated crypto trading for institutions:

Today marks a historic day for GRVT. We’ve built the world’s first compliant, licensed blockchain-settled exchange, and are pioneering the building of the CeDeFi world. Our vision has always been to redesign and rebuild the global financial system on blockchain, though it’s been a challenging journey. This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the unwavering support and dedication of our team, our trusted partners, and the retail users who have put their faith in what we’re building

GRVT has coined many industry firsts, challenging conventional TradFi and DeFi structures and reshaping expectations of what’s possible in the blockchain space for finance.
