I spent a decade at JPMorgan. Then Coinbase. Now I'm building the marketing for a fully onchain trading engine.
Each step was a move toward the same destination: removing the intermediaries I used to work for.

At JPMorgan, I saw how much value the system extracted from the people it was supposed to serve. At Coinbase, I saw crypto start to solve that, but with centralized infrastructure that recreated the same problems.

@DecibelTrade is different. Not a centralized exchange pretending to be transparent. A trading engine where execution, risk, and settlement are all onchain. Verifiable. Deterministic.

I didn't leave TradFi because I was bored. I left because the thing that replaces it is being built right now.

We are focused on shipping things that traders really care about.

Front-Running Protection: ON.

Your order shouldn't become someone else's signal.

Order details stay encrypted while pending. Once confirmed, the resulting trade remains verifiable onchain.

Encrypted before. Verifiable after.

Now live on Decibel.

Good infrastructure should disappear into the experience.

Traders shouldn't have to think about the chain underneath.

They should just be able to trade.

Decibel @DecibelTrade Oct 7

You shouldn't need to know you're on Aptos to trade on Decibel.

What traders actually ask about from the Town Hall with @AptosCollective.

After spending over a decade working with institutions across JPMorgan and Coinbase, one thing is clear: access matters, but workflow matters more.

Institutions need onchain markets to connect to the custody and approval systems they already trust.

Decibel @DecibelTrade Sep 3

Keep the controls.

Add the markets.

Eligible @BitGo self-custody clients can now connect to Decibel through WalletConnect and trade onchain spot and perpetual markets without changing their existing approval workflows.

Wallet controls by BitGo.

Trading venue: Decibel.

Settled on @Aptos.
