Strike Finance is building an all in one perpetual DEX: the features and tools usually fragmented across multiple trading front ends, brought into a single interface, on infrastructure the team owns end to end. Shan is the one putting it together.

The focus right now is integrating deep AI and custom trading strategies that users can deploy in one click. His view of where trading goes next: increasingly automated, powered by AI agents and signal based strategies, and the venues that win will be the ones that make that a native experience rather than a bolt on.

Most people think institutions care about decentralization. They do not. They care about security and speed.

Connections inside the Cardano community and the Chinese community. And if you need a market maker for a CEX listing, Strike has someone in house who can help, one who is not a vampire.

Outside work you will find him at the movies.
