Its proprietary No-CLOB execution model is designed to improve fairness by avoiding the platform acting as a counterparty and reducing issues like front-running. The new funds will support regulatory expansion, product development, and new trading features.

Ilies Larbi, CEO of Ouinex, said the company’s community-funded structure allows it to approach regulation as part of the product rather than simply a compliance requirement.

Since our shareholders are our users, we aren’t cutting any corners to satisfy distant investors. We’re investing heavily in legal frameworks across five continents to ensure that Ouinex remains a safe, sustainable, and fully licensed platform for the years to come.
