Aniket Warty
Founder - Builder
Aniket Warty is one of the founder-builders behind Zen. I build rails for value to move: compliant payments, crypto liquidity, and tokenized assets that actually settle. I'm a self-made entrepreneur who believes in a simple promise: value for value, rational action, and uncompromising integrity. I've spent my career creating systems that let creators, businesses, and investors keep more of what they earn and move it where it works best. At Zen, we've unified our verticals—ZenX (exchange), ZenOTC, ZenPays, ZenFinance, ZenTrading, and ZenTokenize—into one sensible stack.
