Nuts and Bolts to an Open Finance Ecosystem
Organized in 2018, NUTS Finance (https://nuts.finance/) is a blockchain development lab focused on creating the building blocks to enable financial applications on the blockchain.

Our lastest DeFi protocol, Pike (https://www.pike.finance/) a native cross-chain money market was launched at the end of 2023 and we have raised over $6.4m (https://mirror.xyz/pikefinance.eth/n_E5tyife6TkWP2aaC1OlJnC2JDA6__pMqztVKkVcqY) from our own community and users.
