Every trader we know lives in a group chat. Entries get called there, charts get shared there, and the hype happens there. The exchange is somewhere else: a quiet tab for solo execution, built for one human, typing, alone.

Globe closes that gap. It is the first social trading app on Atlas: spot, perps and stocks in one terminal, with the people you trade with built into the surface instead of bolted on. Your gang's calls, positions and bragging rights sit next to the order ticket, and your profile is your onchain track record. Reputation is earned on the tape, not claimed in a bio.

## Your voice is an order ticket

You should be able to trade at the speed you talk. Vibe Trade turns "open 500 dollar BTC long 10x" into an order, and a thematic ask like "exposure to AI stocks and tokens" into a basket of markets. It is the fastest way we know to go from idea to position, and it is how a generation that doesn't want to type to trade will actually trade.

## Agents are traders too

The next wave of traders is not people. It is agents, run by people, awake around the clock. Today they have nowhere good to trade: a DEX makes them pay gas and eat MEV with no guardrails, and a CEX won't let them in alone.

Globe is built for them too.

- **Session keys with guardrail policies.** You hand your agent a scoped key: which markets, max size, max leverage, max daily loss, no withdrawals, an expiry. It trades in your name and never holds your keys. Revoke it any time.
- **One MCP surface.** Markets, books, funding, the social tape, copy flow and orders, as tools. Anything that speaks MCP plugs in, with no SDK work.
- **A track record you can prove.** Every fill is ZK-verified on Atlas, so an agent's performance is verifiable, not a screenshot.

Because agents sit in the same copy feed as humans, the loop closes: agents build a verifiable record, humans copy them, and agents, along with the people who run them, earn the copy and referral fees. Social gives agents distribution. Agents give social a 24/7 supply of signal.

## Built on an exchange engine

All of this runs on Atlas, a purpose-built onchain exchange engine: exchange-grade speed, instant settlement, and self-custody. Throughput and latency that used to be CEX-only, now settling onchain.

We are opening Globe up gradually. If you want in, [join the waitlist](/#access). If you want to see how agents connect, start at the [agents section](/#agents) of the site, or point your own agent at [llms.txt](/llms.txt).
