Taking our dreams to the moon 🚀🌙

“You can’t do big things if you’re content with doing things a little better than everyone else or a little differently than how you did them before.”

Author and business journalist Bill Taylor couldn’t have put it better. To stand out from the crowd, you have to take bold bets—in business or life. Bold bets define startups; they disrupt the status quo, carve out a new space, and transform user experience.

CoinSwitch is founded on this principle: To transform wealth creation for Indians…to make money equal for all. Personally, the stakes are even higher for my co-founders and I. Friends for decades, we have gone all in on this venture; our personal and entrepreneurial relations are hardly distinct. I spoke about this recently on Entrepreneurs’ Day.

For us, bold moves aren’t just the thrust at the beginning of the race. We build even when the market is retrenching. CoinSwitch PRO is a testament. Now, we are going further. Tapping into insights from users like you, we’ve enabled our beta version of API trading on PRO. Staying on top of the market is so much more convenient when you can automate your orders!

Ambitious steps are not an exclusive domain of startups, of course. Five decade-old ISRO is built on such otherworldly missions. ISRO made history when Chandrayaan-3 landed on the moon. The successful mission made India the fourth country to land on the moon, and the very first to land on the southern lunar surface.

At CoinSwitch, we take pride in celebrating such endeavors. Speaking of which, here are some surprising connections you may have missed.

India is taking great strides in the field of crypto regulations too. The recent Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors’ (FMCBG) meeting held at Gandhinagar, Gujarat, represented an important milestone under India’s G20 Presidency. The Financial Stability Board (FSB) presented a Global Regulatory Framework on Crypto assets and Stablecoins which will help guide the development of a comprehensive and coherent global crypto regulatory framework that supports responsible innovation.

At CoinSwitch, we were especially encouraged by India’s ‘Presidency Note’ issued at the conclusion of the meeting. The note is an official document articulating India’s stance and suggestions for global collaboration concerning crypto regulation.

Lastly, we’re well past the halfway mark of this year. This means it is time to reveal a few big launches we’ve been working on! I’m immensely proud of the progress the team has made on these products—being a first of its kind, there is no playbook to follow.

Some of these new products should be hitting your devices soon. A select few users will see a new tab on the home screen of the CoinSwitch app. If you’d like to be one of these early adopters, reply to this email or hit me up on my Twitter.

As always, keep the feedback (good and bad) rolling in!
