SUBX FINANCE LAB ($SFX) is a blockchain-as-a-service provider for businesses to integrate web3 technologies into their products and services. The firm provides businesses with the tools to innovate with blockchain, metaverse and decentralised finance technology.The global blockchain market size is expected to grow from USD 3 billion in 2020 to USD 39 billion by 2025. 60% of CIOs across sectors are on the verge of integrating blockchain into their infrastructure.

This business model has been termed "blockchain-as-a-service" by industry professionals.
The firm has launched two products and is on schedule to release ten more in the coming months. Their products include a no-code NFT minting solution and a no-code platform for businesses to create their custom blockchain token. More information about their products can be found on their whitepaper at https://subx.finance/wp.
These products are also compatible with the most popular blockchain networks. This includes the Ethereum network, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon Network, and the new Cronos Chain operated by Crypto.com. The firm is also releasing a white-label platform where businesses and individuals can resell products under their own brand.
The firm has its native token, $SFX, which businesses can purchase to access its products. Individuals can also purchase and stake the tokens, receiving 80% APY in rewards. $SFX can be purchased on Pancakeswap and the Probit Global Exchange - and soon with VISA and MASTERCARD.
According to an interview conducted with the CEO, he mentioned that the firm would focus on forming high-profile partnerships with enterprises around the globe. They will also tighten the integration of their products, ensuring that $SFX plays a central role in their ecosystem - with the intention to super-scale the price action of $SFX.
