FalconX is one of the fastest growing start-ups in fintech. We are a digital asset brokerage delivering best-in-class pricing and execution capabilities for institutional traders and investors. Our vision is to grow the digital asset ecosystem 100X by providing industry-leading prime brokerage solutions. FalconX is headquartered in San Mateo, CA and has offices in Bangalore and Chicago.
We are data-driven. Whether it's a growth or product decision, we believe data can always help us make more precise and informed choices.
We move fast. Speed of execution is essential for any startup, but we believe this is even more pertinent in our nascent industry.
We value diversity and debate. We believe the direction of our company is shaped by opposing viewpoints and experiences, and that this diversity helps learn and maximize our opportunity for success.
