About Arjun Vijay

Bridging the Future of Crypto & Web3 in IndiaI’ve always believed that being early in the right industry isn’t just about timing, it’s about creating impact. After completing my MBA at IIM Calcutta, I started my journey in sales and business development, gaining firsthand experience at Vodafone and Amplus Energy. Deep down, I knew my true calling was not just about running a mature business, but about creating something from scratch that could be truly transformative.In 2017, while exploring startup ideas, I stumbled into the Bitcoin rabbit hole. What started as curiosity quickly turned into conviction. Crypto wasn’t just an asset class, it was the foundation of a decentralized financial revolution. The problem? While India had a growing interest in Web3, the infrastructure to support it was nearly non-existent.That’s why we built Giottus to make crypto investing simple, secure and compliant for millions of Indians. What started as an idea is now India’s highest-rated crypto exchange, serving 1.3M+ customers while being entirely bootstrapped.I believe India is on the path to becoming a global Web3 leader. But for that to happen, we need regulatory clarity, robust infrastructure, and seamless onramps for INR <> Crypto transactions. At Giottus, we’re bridging that gap, empowering users with financial freedom and advocating for policies that support innovation.If you’re as passionate about crypto, fintech, and Web3 as I am, let’s connect. The future of finance is being built today.
