To a large extent, yes. We like to say that cryptocurrency is like international waters: if you have your own boat and some know-how you can easily get out there and do whatever you like. But not everyone knows how to sail! There's still a lot of need for barges and cruise liners to help average people get from port to port. For us, we want to help people who don't really understand private and public keys to get out and take advantage of the new paradigms being built in cryptocurrency. And for people who do understand these things, we're happy to be a gateway to take advantage of the centralized infrastructure and put everything back in your control on your own hardware wallet. As for being a market maker, our goal is to guarantee best execution anywhere. This requires some fancy footwork on our end, but even after we take the spread, we want to offer you a price as good or better than you can find on any other exchange, net of fees. And that includes DEXs! We will make all these prices transparent so you can see the Hedgehog price as well as whatever Uniswap, 1Inch, or Matic are offering.
