Key points

  • Spectre.ai offers zero-leverage short-duration trading on crypto, stocks, and derivatives with typical returns of 70-100% on trades lasting seconds to minutes.
  • The platform uses decentralized autonomous liquidity pools and smart contracts to eliminate counterparty risk and prevent broker fraud common in centralized trading.
  • Spectre differentiates from major exchanges by specializing in sub-minute trading timeframes rather than long-term holding or high-leverage futures trading.
  • The platform currently supports 80-100 assets including 30-40 cryptocurrencies, 20-30 global stocks, and exotic products like reverse futures and CFDs.
  • Kay Khemani's background in equity research at JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, combined with fintech entrepreneurship, informed Spectre's focus on retail trader protection.

In their own words
