Abra’s contract-based investment platform enables us to quickly add new synthetic assets to the app once they pass our rigid analysis around liquidity, contract market making, and other objective factors. We are working on adding more digital assets, so feel free to let us know in the comments which cryptocurrencies you want to see on Abra in the future. We really value your feedback!

We now have users from 75 countries transacting on Abra, the most active of which are The United States, United Kingdom, The Philippines, Canada, Australia, and Germany.
