Our Story

How Kutoo Started

Kutoo (meaning "box" in Turkish) began with a simple idea. What if learning crypto could be engaging without being risky?

While teaching cryptocurrencies and blockchain at Macquarie University in Australia, our founder, Dr. Nihad Aliyev, observed a recurring problem. Students struggled with existing crypto platforms—they were either too technical, too risky, or both. The issue was not a lack of interest, but the absence of a safe way to learn by doing.

This led to the idea behind Kutoo: bringing simulated crypto trading, thematic crypto boxes, and structured learning together in a simple, user-friendly mobile app. Users practice with simulated crypto boxes, learn through interactive lessons, and move to real trading only when they feel ready.

Today, Kutoo has helped many people take their first steps into crypto. We are still at an early stage, and we look forward to having you join us on this journey.
