About Our Client

Our client is a new cryptocurrency that takes no shortcuts on privacy and usability. Privacy isn’t just important, it’s essential to crypto’s success. Their vision is to become a shielded layer for many more assets, even ones on different chains, and provide a platform for true digital cash.

A core belief is that privacy and ease of use are not in opposition. Users and developers deserve both. Their codebase is TypeScript + Rust, so the world's 1M+ JavaScript developers can contribute.

We are looking for someone who's passionate about creating amazing user experiences and continuously dispelling the myth that crypto is hard.
