CHRIS GILBERT

In February 2022, I met my co-founders and we started our company, Elixir. After months of brainstorming and whiteboarding, we were convinced that we could disrupt the centralized players in the Market Making space. For the past year and a half, we have been working to build a revolutionary financial primitive: decentralized algorithmic market making for central limit order books. As the CTO, I designed, architected, and coded the first iteration of the protocol-a full DPoS network that performs algorithmic market making on centralized exchange pairs. I built a team of 4 engineers, and we have successfully launched 2 testnet releases, onboarded 10,000 validators, and completed a Series A fundraise at a $150m valuation.
