TradeOS, the trust and settlement layer for global commerce, is now part of the Cointelegraph Accelerator. Positioned as the foundation of next-gen stablecoin-based uniserval checkout, TradeOS is building an open, permissionless global trading network with minimal fees and no restrictive ownership controls, aiming to challenge the $4 trillion global e-commerce monopoly.
Built by Bounty Bay Labs with backing from Animoca Brands, TON Ventures and HashKey, TradeOS replaces traditional intermediaries and high platform fees with modular onchain payout rails. These enable programmable settlement via verifiable delivery. TradeOS uses an innovative proof-of-delivery system powered by zk-TLS and TEE to release payouts based on verifiable real-world outcomes. It removes the need for data tokenization or reliance on monopoly APIs, making it ideal for AI-driven and automated commerce.

As a modular commerce stack, TradeOS supports a growing ecosystem of trading businesses. It recently launched a decentralized exchange (DEX) for two of the most actively traded digital game assets, CS2 and Dota 2 skins. Every trade is verifiable, fee-light and fully owned by the trader. With free discovery and open trading, TradeOS eliminates platform fees that can go up to 15%, balance lock-ins and liquidity control from traditional markets like Steam Community Market.
As part of the Cointelegraph Accelerator, TradeOS will gain global media visibility, expert guidance and direct access to leading players across the Web3 ecosystem. The focus is to expand the next-gen global trading experience to more regions and verticals, and establish TradeOS as the essential layer for AI and stablecoin-powered borderless global economy.
“TradeOS is changing the way P2P commerce operates by removing intermediaries and enabling secure trade through smart contracts and verifiable real-world actions,” said Paul Kruegel, head of program at Cointelegraph, adding, “Their approach is especially relevant for gaming assets and digital goods, where trust and transparency are essential. We’re excited to support them in building foundational infrastructure for the future of decentralized commerce.”
Meanwhile, the TradeOS team said:
“Today, the value and profits of selling for traders have been overtaken by platforms with hidden fees and locked-in traffic. TradeOS is creating a decentralized network with no intermediaries and no borders, powered by leading ZK, AI technologies and stablecoin settlement to help anyone trade securely in the global market with ease. We’re not here to patch a broken system; we’re here to build the blockchain empowered Global Economy 3.0.”
