mission

Create a tokenized world where all value can flow freely.

We believe public blockchains have potential to act as a potent equalizing force for the world. As more assets are tokenized and moved onto blockchain rails, public blockchains have a greater chance of democratizing access to financial services in the same way that the internet has democratized access to information.

current challenges

• work hard to create developer tools that make it easier for you to build an amazing product,
• be responsive when asked to provide technical guidance, trouble shooting and other technical feedback (join our chat!),
• proactively learn about your use case, team and goals while also respecting your privacy,
• collaborate with you on 0x improvement proposals (ZEIPs) and open source tools that benefit the greater community,
• be your friend if you are nice to others in our community and demonstrate a strong work ethic.

culture & values

Our values might seem like common sense (and frankly, they are) but we believe passion, persistence, and a strong sense of ethics allow our organization to best serve our community.

• Do the right thing

We hold ourselves to a high moral standard as individuals and as an organization. We are creating an entirely new paradigm for global exchange, and over time, envision 0x protocol serving as the rails for the exchange of many trillions of dollars in tokenized assets.

• Consistently ship

Achieving our mission requires dedication and diligence. We aspire to be an organization that consistently ships. We set high-impact goals that are rooted in data and pride ourselves in consistently outputting outstanding results across the organization. 

• Focus on long-term impact

The societal implications of a decentralized financial system will take time to manifest. It’s crucial that we remain focused on long-term impact and measure our progress over sufficiently long time scales. We value deep intellectual curiosity. We celebrate creativity and the consideration of diverse viewpoints, and understand that we must be in a constant state of learning in a field as rapidly evolving as ours. We are committed to leading by example, making decisions without ego and accepting responsibility when we are wrong.

history

The 0x platform was founded in 2016 by Will Warren and Amir Bandeali with the intention of providing a standard protocol on the ethereum blockchain that facilitates the exchange of any ethereum token.

0x completed its initial coin offering (ICO) on July 16, 2017 and raised $24 million in ether - the cryptocurrency of the ethereum network - from a group of 12,000 backers.
