Tristan Frizza is the Founder of Zeta Markets. Tristan’s curiosity for crypto was ignited in 2017 when he traded his first cryptocurrency, spurring him to finish his Computer Science degree with an emphasis on distributed systems and PoW blockchain technology. He then worked in AI research and as a data scientist in Silicon Valley, eventually writing his thesis on Generative Adversarial Network for Image Super-Resolution for which he received First Class Honours.

Motivated by a passion for open-source software and the potential to democratize finance, Tristan co-founded Zeta. His venture aimed to introduce transparency and accessibility to the financial sector, drawing on his deep technological expertise and vision for the future of global markets. The turning point came in 2021 when Tristan and his team triumphed in a Solana hackathon, outshining over 13,000 participants, which catalyzed the transformation of their proof of concept into a prominent decentralized exchange.

Today, Zeta is a testament to Tristan’s ambition and innovation, having processed over $5 billion in trading volume. His journey from a crypto enthusiast to a trailblazer in decentralized finance illustrates the impact of perseverance, hard work, and conviction in blockchain technology in reshaping the financial landscape.
