Arbital: The social trading app for stocks, memes, and perps

The social trading app for stocks, memes, and perps

Arbital lets you trade perps, memes, stocks, and run market-making strategies from one place. In our first 7 months, 2,700 traders have traded $1.35B in volume through Arbital, and we're now doing $435M/month. We're building towards a social, mobile-first trading app that brings tokenized equities, crypto, and perps to everyone.

Company Launches

Arbital - Trade memes, stocks, and perps from one place

See original launch post

TL;DR: Arbital is a trading terminal for memecoins, stocks, and perps. In our first seven months, 2,700 traders have traded $1.35B through Arbital. We recently hit a record $41M in daily volume and are now doing ~$435M/month in trading volume.

The problem

Volatility no longer lives in one market.

On any given day, it might be a memecoin ripping, an AI stock pumping, or a Korean or Chinese stock moving.

But two things get in the way:

Discovery is noisy. Trade ideas are scattered across social feeds, and it's hard to know who's credible or why they're making a trade.
Execution is fragmented. There's no single place to trade every market that matters - crypto, memes, perps, and equities.

Arbital brings traders, trade ideas, and markets into one place.

What we built

Arbital is one place to discover and trade the markets you care about most.

With Arbital, you can:

Trade memecoins, equities, and perps
Run automated strategies like market making and grid trading

We’re also building a social, mobile-first trading app where users can discover what other traders are buying, understand their reasoning, and execute immediately.

Why us

Before Arbital, we were early team members at Aevo. We helped scale the exchange from ~$1B to $100B in cumulative volume, grew DAU from 1,000 to 30,000 in five months, and helped launch its token, which reached a ~$3.8B peak valuation and is listed on Binance and Bybit.

On the engineering side, we built trading systems that handled 100K events per second with <2ms latency.

Now we're using what we learned to build a simpler trading experience for a global audience.
