anchored·A8qrCS…VxyoSummary
Ellipsis Labs is a New York-based crypto trading technology company founded in 2022 by Eugene Chen and Jarry Xiao, best known for Phoenix, a fully on-chain limit order book on Solana, and for Phoenix Perpetuals, an on-chain perpetuals exchange. No regulatory action, lawsuit, hack, or fraud allegation against the company was found in available reporting; the main documented frictions are a 2024 episode in which the firm was initially anonymous about building the high-volume DEX SolFi, and 2026 community criticism that Solana ecosystem leaders favored Phoenix Perpetuals over rival perp platforms.
