## About SwissBorg

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: SwissBorg is a licensed European crypto app that uses exchange aggregation to offer users the best prices for buying, selling, and earning on cryptocurrencies.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Post-ICO; funded via a public token sale in 2018)
- **Headquarters**: Lausanne, Switzerland (with a secondary office in Tallinn, Estonia)
- **Founded**: 2018
- **Founders**: Cyrus Fazel, Anthony Lesoismier-Geniaux

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Fintech / Cryptocurrency / Wealth Management
- **Target customers**: B2C (retail investors and crypto enthusiasts)
- **Mission statement**: To democratise wealth management by making it fun, fair, and community-centric. Their broader vision is to build the bank of the future.

## Products & Services
For each major offering:
- **[The SwissBorg App]**: A mobile-first, non-custodial platform for buying, selling, trading, and earning on crypto. Uses a proprietary "Smart Engine" that aggregates liquidity from 12+ exchanges to offer the best execution price on over 10,000 trading pairs. (SaaS / Mobile App)
- **[SwissBorg Crypto Card]**: A Mastercard that lets users spend their crypto directly at any merchant accepting Mastercard, with instant conversion and cashback paid in BORG tokens. (Service)
- **[BORG Token & Ranks]**: The native utility token. Users lock ("stake") BORG to unlock higher "Ranks," which provide benefits like reduced trading fees (from 1.49% down to 0.25%), higher yields, exclusive Alpha investment access, and increased voting power in the SwissBorg DAO. (Token / Ecosystem)
- **[Alpha & Bundles]**: Investment products within the app. "Alpha" gives users early access to pre-sale investment opportunities, while "Bundles" allow for diversified, thematic crypto portfolios (e.g., Metaverse, DeFi). (Service)

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available (private company); BORG token market cap is volatile and publicly tracked on CoinGecko/CoinMarketCap.
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding was raised via the 2018 ICO (Initial Coin Offering). They are now a profitable/revenue-generating platform trading on fees.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Community-funded via the ICO; licensed by the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF) under MiCA regulations; partner with Mastercard for the crypto card.
- **Growth Signals**:
    - Grew from 9 employees at ICO to a team of **200+** today.
    - **MiCA License Approval**: Received a major regulatory green light from the French AMF in 2024, allowing them to operate across the European Union.
    - **Expansion**: Expanded into the Mexican market (June 2024).
    - **Technical Growth**: Bridged the BORG token to the Solana blockchain (2024).
    - **User Base**: Available in 47 countries and 16 currencies.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Regulatory First-Mover**: One of the first crypto apps to achieve the comprehensive MiCA license in Europe, providing a strong trust signal compared to unregulated competitors.
- **Smart Engine Technology**: Unlike standard exchanges (Coinbase, Binance) that use their own order books, SwissBorg aggregates prices from multiple sources to guarantee the best price for the user--a key UX moat.
- **Community-Centric (Tokenomics)**: The entire business model is designed around the community. Users who hold and lock the BORG token directly benefit from the platform's success through cashback, lower fees, and governance rights.
- **Swiss "Trust" Branding**: Engineered in Switzerland and licensed in Europe, the company leverages the "Swiss" reputation for security, precision, and financial privacy.

## Strategic Focus
- **Regulated Expansion**: Using the MiCA license to dominate the European crypto market as the compliant, user-friendly "bank of the future."
- **Product Ecosystem**: Deepening the "wealth management" suite beyond simple trading, focusing on recurring investment (Auto-Invest), yield generation, and spend (Card).
- **Talent Acquisition**: Scaling the engineering and business teams (currently 200+ people across Europe) to support new product verticals and geographic expansion.
- **Decentralized Autonomy**: Shifting more control to the community via the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) and the BORG token voting system.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture & Mission**: Very strong mission-driven culture focused on "democratising wealth" and "financial freedom." Employees are generally passionate about crypto and fintech disruption.
- **Remote-First Environment**: They operate a "remote-first" policy, hiring across the majority of European countries. You can choose to work from their offices in Lausanne or Tallinn, or work fully remotely from home.
- **Flexibility & Perks**:
    - **Flexible working environment** (you choose where you are most effective).
    - **25 days holiday** plus local bank holidays.
    - **Learning & Development budget** for personal growth.
    - **BORG Annual Bonus** (paid in the company's native token).
    - **Free Diamond Rank for employees** (effectively gives you the highest tier of trading benefits and cashback for free).
- **Diversity & Inclusion**: The company explicitly states a goal of being a "truly inclusive environment" and employs people from "25+ different nationalities."
- **Engineering Culture**: Modern stack (implied by their need for Software Engineers, Quant, and Risk roles). They use a "Proof of Liabilities" tool and MPC keyless technology for security, indicating high engineering standards.
- **Interview Process**: Ranges from 2-4 weeks; starts with a Talent team screen.
