Yesterday, crypto exchange edgeX announced an investment from Circle Ventures, the company behind USDC.
They won this deal because they built what pro traders actually want: A fast, traditional trading feel, right on the blockchain.
For years, traders had a tough choice. Use a centralized site (like Binance) for fast trades, or use a decentralized site (DEX) to keep control of their own money. But DEXs were usually slow and clunky.
edgeX fixed this by building a lightning-fast DEX that uses a real order book. It feels just like a top-tier exchange, but you keep your own keys.
Circle invested because they want USDC to be the main money used for fast, global trading.
Backing edgeX helps make that happen.
If you want big money, stop forcing pros to use clunky apps.
