Onchain FX represents a significant untapped opportunity within the crypto space. Consider the scale: traditional foreign exchange markets process $7.5 trillion daily.

No complex mechanisms needed, just robust on-chain settlement that traditional finance simply cannot match. As adoption accelerates, the intersection of FX trading and decentralized rails could reshape how global capital moves.
