Everyone talks about how "onboarding" is needed in crypto, but Azura is the only team I've seen actually executing on this with the First Movers Campaign.
After speaking with friends from college, I'm more convinced than ever that eventually EVERYONE will be a trader in some form.
Those who make a name for themselves on CT/FinTwit now will be seen as pioneers in a few years.
I believe Azura is best positioned to take advantage of this, with a complete funnel from onboarding new users to providing them with the trading resources they'll use everyday.
James: "Right now we are whipping in the president's vehicle and-"
Shaams: "I lowkey need a carseat bro I'm too short for this"
James: "pff-yeah. Bro, Barron, his settings are crazy, but we didn't get to see Barron in-person. But we're sitting in his car and driving it right now, so one day, we're gonna get the Barron collab, and we're gonna cook some crypto together!"
Shaams: "yeah man... launch soon. Cabal launch with Barron soon!"
James: "You heard it from us. We're gonna launch Barron coin soon!"
whenever im holding a new position, the first few days i have nightmares that it nuked overnight
when i wake up i'm always too scared to check the actual price, so i just go back to sleep and end up getting out of bed at like 2 pm
"Extraction" is probably the word of the year on CT
Whether it be through bundles, fees, or pure lies, most would agree that the average trader is getting farmed in some way or another
Azura is the first web terminal I've seen that actually tries to fight this by charging 0 trading fees
Honestly, at first I was skeptical about this as well. Usually I've found that "free" means getting extracted from somewhere else
But after speaking extensively with @jacksondenka and the rest of the team, and doing DD into the backend/business model, I was proven wrong:
There aren't any hidden malicious features screwing with your fills or otherwise stealing money from you
Azura has the funding/backing to sustain this model and is fully committed to, worst case scenario, burning through their capital in pursuit of becoming the standard for trading terminals
While most onchain teams/products have seemingly given up or basically exited at this point, it's nice to see Azura attempt to push the trenches forward and give back to traders out of their own pockets (rather than through the typical gatekept cashback deals)
To be transparent though, I don't think the product is fully complete yet regarding certain features. I'm not too concerned about this though since
1) the team is extremely open-minded
2) the team is very efficient when it comes to processing and executing on feedback
On top of that, I'll be directly helping by giving the perspective of someone who has traded on many terminals, as well as spent the last 2+ years practically living in the trenches
I'm taking a long term bet here on Azura, Jackson, and the team to see them become the first user-aligned web terminal in crypto
