Alexander Kravets is the CEO and co-founder of XTRADE. Alex has a long and impressive track record of growing and leading disruptive trading technology firms. He spoke to us about what he feels are the most eye-catching aspects of the Gimmer project and why the token sale is a great opportunity.

What do you find attractive about the Gimmer project?
Gimmer is bringing automated cryptocurrency trading to the retail market and democratising algorithmic trading. Usually you need coding knowledge to carry out automated trading but through Gimmer’s automated trading strategies, you don’t need to technical expertise. It’s a very user-friendly and intuitive approach to trading via next generation solutions, which isn’t widely available currently.

What problem do you think Gimmer solves for customers?
It is lowering the barriers to entry to the crypto trading market. To trade across multiple exchanges requires multiple APIs. We’re working on a Unified FIX API to allow Gimmer users to execute strategies across multiple exchanges automatically. By aggregating prices from all exchanges in real time, taking advantage of price differences on exchanges around the globe, traders can benefit from price improvement on the execution. This is a big advantage and a technical leap forward for the market.

As an adviser what expertise will you be bringing to Gimmer and why is it relevant?
My background is in growing and leading disruptive trading technology firms and at XTRADE we have a team of highly experienced crypto tech developers. By partnering with XTRADE, Gimmer and their clients can expect higher fill rates, deeper liquidity across exchanges, greater opportunities for arbitrage, longer uptimes, and reduced latencies for multi-asset crypto execution.

What’s your message to anyone interested in the token sale and presale?
The product is already out there and it’s working. Gimmer is much more than a white paper, it’s already in existence with plans that will open up the market to the huge numbers who want to engage with crypto trading but don’t have the tools to do so yet. Soon, Gimmer’s trading bots will be executing trades across multiple markets, offering many strategies and active trades. Gimmer will lead the market in liquidity and price transparency and that makes it uniquely placed to take advantage of the substantial growth in the sector in the coming months and years.
