About Skolem Technologies
Skolem Technologies provides institutional-grade data and execution services for DeFi markets. Its platform aggregates liquidity across multiple decentralized protocols, offering real-time pricing, order routing, and settlement tools. The core pain point it addresses is the operational complexity and security risks that institutions face when entering DeFi—such as fragmented liquidity, unreliable data, and lack of compliance-friendly infrastructure. Skolem solves this by delivering a unified interface with robust risk controls, enabling institutions to trade, lend, and stake efficiently while maintaining auditability. As of the period from March to September 2026, no significant public developments were reported; the company was acquired by Talos in May 2024 and its technology has been integrated into Talos's offering.
