About Us

When I was a kid, I saved up my allowance and bought what I thought was a rare pack of Pokémon cards on eBay. The photos looked real, the price seemed just right, and my excitement was through the roof. But when the cards arrived, I felt my stomach drop. They were fakes. The holograms were cheap imitations, the colors were wrong, and the edges frayed in my hands. I reached out to the seller, hoping for an explanation or even a refund. Instead, they vanished. No reply, no accountability. Just silence.

​

That moment stuck with me. This led me to the realization that the digital world could make deception easy. For years, I carried that frustration with me, always remembering how powerless I felt as a kid who wanted something authentic and got burned instead.

​

SwapDotz was born out of that memory. I wanted to build something that couldn’t be faked, a way to restore trust where it had been eroded. Our tokens are designed with uncounterfeitability and accountability at their core. Every SwapDot is cryptographically secured, every transfer is recorded, and every owner has proof of authenticity that can’t vanish into thin air.

​

What started with one bad purchase turned into a lifelong mission: to make sure no one else has to feel that sting of being duped, to create a world where collectibles and digital ownership can finally be trusted.

​

SwapDotz is a promise that what you hold is real, and that its story, like yours, will endure.
