Ethos Core Value

You’re In Control.

At Ethos, the customer is always in the driver’s seat. Ethos never takes possession of keys or coins. Ethos lets users access DeFi opportunities directly from their self-custody vault.

Ethos is a decentralized platform, meaning, even if Ethos fails, you still have access to all of your crypto. 

All the Control. None of the Anxiety.

With Ethos’s patent-pending Magic Key technology, you can securely back-up and restore your keys without sacrificing any control. Ethos cannot reconstruct your key, only you can. Using your Safe Words, you can securely restore your keys on any device, without ever exposing them to the dangers of a centralized exchange. 

Self-Directed. Always.

Nothing happens without your say-so. Every trade you execute requires your signature and is fully self-directed. Ethos does not control any of your keys or crypto. You decide what risks you want to take or not take. 

With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility

Ethos provides you with the tools you need to access DeFi, but all decisions are your own. You are responsible for your investment decisions. Ethos recommends that you do extensive research into anything you decide to trade and to only invest what you can afford to lose. Ethos provides you with the software and resources to help you succeed, but ultimately, your destiny is in your hands.

Ethos Core Value

The Blockchain Always Tells the Truth

Everything is on-chain. Always. You can trust Ethos because everything happens on the blockchain and audit it for yourself.

Crypto was built for transparency and auditability. No centralization to hide behind.

Information Always Visible

We believe that customers should always be fully educated on every decision that is being made. Ethos provides up-front information that helps you make informed decisions.

Trust, but Verify

DeFi doesn’t ask for your trust, DeFi earns your trust. Centralized exchanges obscure important information that prevents you from making informed decisions.

Transparency is critical for building trust in crypto. We believe in radical transparency.

Choose What Risks You Want to Take

When information is readily available, you get to choose what risks you do, or don’t, want to take. Centralized exchanges may lend or stake crypto without your knowledge or consent. At Ethos, every decision is yours to make and every risk is yours to take.
