“The Kikitrade and Animoca Brands partnership is a turning point for enabling mass adoption of GameFi. With its social capabilities, Kikitrade will create an educational platform that connects GameFi players and CeFi users – on one hand streamlining GameFi players’ ability to monetize their gaming experience, while on the other hand introducing CeFi users to the GameFi ecosystem.”

Kikitrade started in 2020 with an aim to re-invent the crypto investing experience to allow professional traders, everyday investors and crypto-beginners to learn and invest in cryptocurrency. Currently, the company is serving in Hong Kong, Taiwan, SEA and Australia.
