While addressing the attitude of crypto investment and use by other platforms, Dennis Mary, ComiBlock co-founder and CEO, noted that“Most crypto platforms are structured as an exchange and leave most retail users with a black box experience, which is unhealthy for many reasons. On top of that, most crypto exchanges see the average users as just an anonymised dollar value.”

She further explained, “These black box experiences have promoted an irresponsible and toxic investing culture. We’re rebuilding it entirely. The exchange model is an old factory. ComiBlock is effectively a new factory. Our recent funding from Expert Dojo is another sign of the faith and trust that our customers, partners, and investors have in ComiBlock. We’re honoured that they’ve come on this journey with us.”
