Let's not lie anymore.

On September 4, we launched the first round of The Factory. We decided to make it invite-only to give ourselves room to test, gather feedback, and work through the inevitable trial and error. Now, for our second round, The Factory will be open for anyone to join who needs a chill refuge from the market's mess.

As they stepped away from hums and drums of The Factory into a quieter breakroom, Kivuli shared the personal story that was the catalyst for all he had built. "This all began with Selene," he said softly, his voice carrying a weight of unresolved sorrow. "She and I were not just in love; we were in sync with every market wave. We thrived in the crypto world together, understanding each other like no one else could."

The air is charged with an electric energy, buzzing with the potential of the unseen and the groundbreaking. As they step further into the facility, Umo's eyes are drawn to a remarkable sight—a sprawling conveyor belt laden with coins glowing with an ethereal light, unlike anything he's ever seen in the crypto world. These coins move rhythmically, each piece shimmering under overhead lights, casting reflections that dance across the polished surfaces of the high-tech interior.

Umoja Protocol provides user-friendly, affordable, and flexible options with 10x leverage and built-in liquidation protection. Even better, you can withdraw profits anytime without closing your positions.

In just 6 months, Umoja has grown from an Alpha dApp with $45K in transaction volume to a main-net DeFi protocol with ~$30M across BTC, ETH, and AVAX markets. As we prepare for the TGE in late October, the team has iterated on the tokenomics over 20 times to optimize architecture, incentives, and inflation.
