# Welcome to Yellow!

Markets should be open, fast, and fair. Too often, traders are forced to choose between performance and control — speed at the cost of custody, or transparency at the cost of usability.

Yellow takes a different approach: fast trading infrastructure with **user-controlled custody**. Trade spot and perpetual markets without giving up ownership of your assets.

### What Yellow Stands For

* **Control stays with you** — your assets never disappear into a black box just to access the market.
* **Trading is fast** — market participation shouldn't feel delayed, fragmented, or unnecessarily complex.
* **Access is simple** — sign in with Google or connect your own wallet.
* **Markets are easy to navigate** — funding, trading, transferring, and withdrawing feel like one clear system.
