About us
We trade our own capital and build the technology behind our trading in-house, giving us full control over how we operate, from research and infrastructure to execution and risk. Most of our team is based in the Czech Republic, working across markets where we provide liquidity and quote some of the deepest books in crypto.

Small enough to move fast, strong enough to matter
Koton started with a few people trading and grew into one of Binance's top market makers. We never took outside money or bought our way into the market. Everything here, we built ourselves.
Independence is a big part of who we are. With no external clients or investors to answer to, we can think long term, move quickly, and do things the way we believe they should be done.
We keep a low profile on purpose. We're not trying to be the loudest name in the market or the fastest-growing one. We're focused on doing the work well, building something that lasts, and letting the results speak for themselves.
The goal is simple: keep building better, and keep trading better.
Where we're headed
By 2028 we want to be trading at the front of the market on technology we own end to end, profitable and financially independent, and putting a real share of what we make back into the world.
What that looks like
- 01
Sharper every year
The best strategies we can build, always improving, with Binance as our base and more venues on the way.
- 02
The right size, not the biggest
We grow carefully and only with strong people, so quality and speed hold as we scale.
- 03
Independent and built to last
Profitable, efficient and financially strong for the long run, answering to no one but ourselves.
- 04
Profit with a point
A real share of what we make goes back into the world.
Our mission
We do interesting work alongside people we're genuinely glad to be around, and turn the results into something good beyond ourselves.
If that sounds like a place you'd fit, we're usually hiring.
