Mercado Bitcoin (MB), a digital assets platform, announced the closing of the fourth batch of the Next acceleration program, promoted by the National Federation of Central Bank Servers Associations (Fenasbac).
The initiative, focused on "DeFi Experience," brought together startups with the goal of developing solutions that enhance the customer experience in the decentralized finance (DeFi) universe. At Demo Day, held last week in São Paulo (SP), Mullet Finance and Trexx, startups accelerated by MB in the last edition, presented their projects to the tokenization company.
Mullet Finance, a spinoff from Rispar, proposed a solution that integrates the dynamism of decentralized finance with the security of a regulated structure, facilitating access to DeFi products and offering post-fixed interest rates linked to the indexes of the protocol used in the transaction.
“Mullet Finance has transformed its collateralized lending solution into a protocol to enable onchain funding. This innovation aligns with trends such as tokenization and Drex, creating a bridge between the traditional market and the opportunities offered by decentralized finance,” explains Fabrício Tota, MB’s Director of New Business.
Participating in batch #4 of Next was a unique experience. The support of FENASBAC and Mercado Bitcoin allowed us to completely rethink the product and arrive at a definition we had not previously imagined. With the support of mentors, we are forging a safe and innovative path to connect the traditional financial market to the DeFi universe, and we are ready to actively evolve the protocol, making it "Drex-Ready" in the near future.
Trexx, in turn, presented a platform aimed at inclusion and transforming people through technology and entertainment, focusing on airdrop management and democratizing access to this type of investment. "Trexx has developed a matchmaking system between investors and farmers, an advancement that can significantly improve efficiency and transparency in token distribution, benefiting both issuers and airdrop recipients," says Tota.
“The project was born because we saw an asymmetry in airdrops, similar to what I saw with scholarships in the past when we founded the largest blockchain gaming community in Latin America: People with time and no capital, and people with capital and no time. It was great to have MB as a partner in building this pilot and to continue along in this development to facilitate access to this type of product for the exchange's customers,” says Helo Passos, founder of Trexx.
“Mercado Bitcoin’s participation as a maintainer of Next, since its inception, reinforces our commitment to open innovation and the development of truly innovative solutions in the financial market. Our connection with Mullet and Trexx does not end here and we will continue to support them and explore new opportunities”, says the MB executive.
