Bitcoin emerged from necessity.
The 2008 financial crisis forced people to question and reevaluate their relationship with money and the cacophony of financial instruments built on top of it. What they found were systems that were opaque and anachronistic. The money we use today wasn’t made for the Internet.
Bitcoin is just one part of a wave of new technologies that’s changing all that. Rather than the technological extensions meant to preserve legacy technologies, Bitcoin represents a paradigm shift. The possibilities offered by these new technologies are replacing sluggish closed networks, cutting out middlemen, and empowering individuals.
BitBox is also emerging from necessity. Recent events have shown that the Bitcoin economy is simply too large for one exchange to handle, no matter how efficient and scalable its architecture may be. The existing options for exchange are woefully inadequate to handle the kind of load that will come with being a mainstream part of the global financial system. Many people simply do not have a viable option for exchange.
That’s why we’re launching a platform that empowers anyone to store, trade, and track bitcoin. We want to make bitcoin easy to get and easy to use for both merchants and consumers through seamless banking integration, secure storage, and a joyful user experience.
While we’re building a system that is secure first, our event-based asynchronous technology stack encourages scale and allows for creation of high-volume and live streaming data feeds.
We’re FinCEN compliant, based in the United States, and passionate about building architecture that facilitates and ensures the flow of value.
