Company
Arbital
Social trading app for stocks, memes, and perps.
We're building Arbital, a mobile-first social trading app where users can trade perps, memes, and tokenized equities from one place. We let traders run market-making strategies, discuss trades, and follow what their peers are doing. We bridge stocks, crypto, and memecoins for a single trading experience on mobile.
We live in Singapore and the company is based here. After YC, we'd continue operating from Singapore.
Singapore is where we are and where our user base is most active. The region is fintech-friendly and good for scaling a trading platform.
