General info:

Pangolin is a fork of Uniswap V2 with more features built on top of it, that was initially launched on the Avalanche C-Chain.


The crypto exchange market is one of the most competitive within the space, and it can be split into two high-level categories: We have centralized exchanges, where Binance leads the pack with over 10s of billions in daily trading volume, followed by Coinbase and Kraken.

Then we have Decentralised exchanges such as UniSwap and dYdX, where the average daily trading volume has been hovering around 1bn dollars. 


To describe the market opportunity, the total trading volume in crypto is currently roughly around 100Bn dollars per day, and exchanges typically generate revenue by taking a fee from swaps made on their platform.


Comparing to traditional finance, monthly trading volume on for example the New York stock exchange is in excess of $1.5 trillion per month. 


In this episode, we find out how Pangolin is positioned within this market, and what their plans are for the future.
