It offers native Solana bridging for liquidity and is virtual machine agnostic (supports Rust, TypeScript, and any verifiable execution environment). - **[TradeRush](https://www.n1.xyz/)**: A perpetuals futures exchange running on N1, offering lightning-fast execution and advanced structured trading products. - **[01 Exchange](https://www.n1.xyz/)**: A professional-grade trading terminal that aggregates all onchain markets in one interface, enabling traders to discover and execute edge across any asset. - **[Atomic Transactions](https://www.n1.xyz/)**: A novel feature that bundles multiple actions (e.g., order placement, hedge adjustment, liquidity provision) into a single atomic instruction set, executed as one step with built-in risk checks. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue $1.0M (LinkedIn estimate) | Total Funding $5.0M - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Seed round led by **dao5** and **Founders Fund** (September 2023) with 9 investors including Syncretic Capital - **Growth Signals**: - Headcount grew 41.7% year-over-year to 14 employees - Network live on Proton (first implementation); testnet in phased rollout - Active development of Solana bridge and integration with Jito (Re)staking for validator set expansion - Team distributed across 5 countries (US, Portugal, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia) ## Competitive Advantages - **Horizontal scalability**: Each app runs in its own isolated environment, eliminating state congestion and gas wars; performance scales with validator count. - **Sub‑ms latency & 100K+ TPS**: Designed to rival centralized trading systems while remaining fully decentralized. - **Native liquidity bridge**: Direct Solana bridge for seamless asset and transaction flow. - **VM agnosticism**: Developers can use any execution environment (SNARKs, consensus proofs, etc.) as long as verification is defined. ## Strategic Focus - **Phase‑by‑phase decentralization**: Starting with a curated operator (Proton) and progressively increasing independent parties securing the network through staking and proof verification. - **Ecosystem growth**: Attracting developers to build DeFi applications (DEXs, yield vaults, lending, memecoins, RWAs) and expanding the app suite (TradeRush, 01 Exchange, Atomics). - **Infrastructure integration**: Plugging into Jito (Re)staking for slashable security and moving data availability fully onto the N1 validator set. ## Why Work Here - **Cutting‑edge tech**: Contribute to a novel L1 blockchain that rethinks consensus and execution for finance at internet scale. - **Small, high‑growth team**: 14 people with a 40%+ headcount growth rate — a chance for high impact ownership. - **Global & remote‑friendly**: Team spans 5 countries (US, Portugal, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia) with a technical majority (53% engineering). - **Founder‑led**: Co‑founder Dima Romanov (CEO) actively drives the vision; culture emphasizes building fast and shipping. - **Careers page active**: Hiring across multiple roles via [jobs.ashbyhq.com/n1](https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/n1) — recent focus on engineering, design, and operations. ## Sources 1.
