Overview

Whetstone Research builds on-chain market infrastructure focused on the Uniswap ecosystem. Its flagship Doppler protocol improves price discovery and liquidity bootstrapping, helping traders and investors achieve more efficient market interactions. Pure Markets is the user-friendly DeFi frontend built on Doppler, serving as the first application to leverage Doppler’s capabilities. The company differentiates itself by specializing in Uniswap-based on-chain markets and by offering both a protocol (Doppler) and an accompanying frontend (Pure Markets) that together streamline access to efficient, decentralized trading. Its goal is to advance on-chain market protocols and become a key player in DeFi by enabling better market operations and significant user engagement (potentially through transaction fees).
