Since the Bitcoin white paper in 2008, the crypto ecosystem has constantly evolved through multiple build phases. We are now at the beginning of the next build phase and significant innovation will happen over the next few years. Crypto innovation has gone through phases spanning building L1/L2, consumer DApps, DeFi and most recently NFTs. Crypto is now entering the next phase where infrastructure will play a key role in acceleration. Tooling to build, analyse, trade, and secure blockchains, tokens & applications is getting more sophisticated. We believe institutional participation is key to further development of Crypto markets. To support their participation, an infra layer to support institutional investment & trading in crypto needs to evolve to the standard of traditional asset classes.
At PYOR (pronounced Pure), our mission is to accelerate global institutional participation in Web3 by enabling high fidelity insights and data. We aim to establish a source of truth and provide key insights on Web3 via a desktop analytics tool.
PYOR was founded in August 2022 by four senior executives of CoinSwitch (Yadu, Sharan, Sarmad & Krishna). The founders of PYOR have 18 years of experience building in crypto. Further, they have had key roles in building four Indian unicorns as well as deep experience in global blue chip firms like Barclays, KPMG, E&Y and Unilever.
We are now putting together our founding team members across design, product and engineering. Teammates will get a chance to work at the cutting edge of Web3 and have a vantage point as crypto assets go mainstream among institutions globally.
If you are someone who enjoys challenges, ownership, autonomy & responsibility, an environment to experiment & buidl on first principles and lastly and most importantly if you enjoy being in unfamiliar territory, PYOR is right for you.
