At Agora, our mission is to transform how money moves. We believe stablecoins will underpin a new financial fabric, one that is faster, more global, and more efficient than today’s siloed systems. That is why we are building AUSD and the Agora stack, a full service platform that makes issuing, managing, and integrating stablecoins seamless – whether you’re a developer, fintech, or institution. With AUSD, stablecoins become programmable, composable, and ubiquitous by default. We’re backed by world-class investors including Paradigm and Dragonfly, and we’re growing a team to reimagine how value moves online. Were intentional about who we bring on. If you’re passionate about stablecoins and want to help create more open, intuitive ways for people to engage with money, let’s talk. jobs.gem.com/agora

Control emerged from a simple truth: The same enterprise-grade security that protects billions for institutions should be accessible to individuals managing their digital wealth.

We saw an opportunity to bridge this gap. Today, Control is the self-custody partner for people with digital asset wealth.
