Shrimpy is a fast-paced dynamic startup in the heart of Silicon Valley. It focuses on cryptocurrency portfolio management and a real-time trading API. It has been almost a year since I joined Shrimpy as a UI/ UX and Visual Designer. We are a small team with a great passion for working relentlessly to disrupt the landscape of cryptocurrency portfolio management by providing our users with the best possible experience and value from the Shrimpy platform. In order to achieve this mission, each team member has been wearing multiple hats at the same time!

In just the past two weeks, Shrimpy executed an additional $50 million in Bitcoin trades, effectively achieving our $300 million trading milestone in under a year!

Ten months ago, Shrimpy went from managing $0 to $1,000,000 in just one month. In under 9 months, Shrimpy managed to achieve $250 million in trading volume across 6 different exchanges. 

We expect to see a rapidly growing trend in terms of trading volume and are accordingly prepared to support the increased load while providing seamless trade execution through our advanced infrastructure.

The dramatic highs and lows of Bitcoin and the outright explosion of cryptocurrencies over the past couple years have a lot of traders and enthusiasts wondering how to report cryptocurrency on their taxes.

No matter your situation, you’ve probably made some trades, and now you want to make sure that you report everything legally on your taxes.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has released guidance that selling or trading a cryptocurrency asset (including for another cryptocurrency asset) is a taxable event

Blockchain’s increasing utility in diverse use cases is moving the world closer to a trustless economy, thus removing the need for third parties to exchange goods and services.

A few days ago we had a momentous occasion for the Shrimpy team. We overtook a threshold of trading we didn’t expect to come so early. The Shrimpy application is now performing over 150k trades per 24 hours.

Today we will be introducing our founding members and first employees of the Shrimpy Team!

One month ago when we first released Shrimpy, we didn’t expect this moment to come so soon. Our team isn’t a bunch of wealth management executives from Morgan Stanley who have unlimited resources. We are engineers who just love building awesome things.

The purpose of this article is to present the case for why ICOs will be abandoned in the coming years. Some of our previous articles covered other areas of crypto investing.
