Waterfall is a pioneering trading and pricing protocol for NFTs that is transforming how digital collectibles are valued and exchanged. Founded in 2021, the company recognized that traditional NFT marketplaces left something critical on the table: meaningful price discovery for illiquid assets. So they built something different - a prediction market-esque protocol that lets users trade shards to predict NFT prices, creating instant price discovery for both liquid and illiquid assets.
Backed by Electric Capital and Pantera Capital, Waterfall is making NFTs more composable and productive through innovative infrastructure and mechanisms. Their all-in-one platform on Base enables creators, collectors, and traders to mint NFTs using different ERC-20 tokens, while their protocol introduces novel financial derivatives strategies to the NFT space. As a lean, fast-paced team headquartered in New York, they are building an inclusive culture that goes beyond just creating impact - they are reimagining what is possible in the world of digital asset trading.
