The CEO of DX.Exchange, Daniel Skowronski, also added: "Finding a VC with both traditional expertise yet innovative thinking was our priority, and we looked for a strategic partner that was just as committed as we were to our cause and vision."
“As Founders who themselves started 10 companies that created over $10 billion in value, NFX has one of the strongest teams that understands and supports crypto and blockchain technology. Their experience and influence will be instrumental as DX.Exchange continues to grow.”
NFX attracted to DX.Exchange’s modern Trading Platform
NFX was attracted to DX.Exchange because it has generated a lot of attention in the crypto industry. This is because of its free trading business model and “ultra-modern” trading platform.
DX.Exchange's announcement of the partnership with NFX follows on the heels of the appointment of Amedeo Moscato as Chief Operating Officer, which Finance Magnates reported today. Moscato joins the company from blockchain-based recruiting platform OUNA, where he was Chief Marketing Officer.
Moscato's appointment is part of a wider hiring spree for the exchange. Over the past couple of months, it has hired multiple new employees over a range of departments.
