About Hibachi
Stablecoins are beginning to reshape the global FX market, where more than $10 trillion trades every day. Hibachi is building the exchange designed for that shift.
We are building a modern central limit order book for global currencies with transparent prices, direct access to liquidity, and infrastructure designed for continuous global markets. Our goal is to open FX trading beyond the traditional interbank system and create a venue where global money can move freely.
We are a small team of engineers and traders who have built market infrastructure at Tower Research, Citadel, Coinbase, and Bloomberg. We care deeply about performance, correctness, and building systems that operate at global scale.
Hibachi is backed by Dragonfly Capital, Electric Capital, Coinbase Ventures, and Circle Ventures.
