BUILDERS BEHIND VERSUS

MEET THE TEAM TURNING TRADING INTO A 1V1 ARENA.

Versus is built by a compact group of traders, gamers and builders obsessed with one question: "What if trading actually felt like a ranked game mode?". This is the squad turning that idea into a real arena where every entry feels like queueing for a climb.

Sergio "Baldoshii"

Co-Founder & Game Director

A hyper-competitive mind wired for ladders, not for casual mode. Started with trading, but the market alone wasn't enough, no lobbies, no "GG", no clutch moments, just silent charts and liquidations. Versus is his answer: turn every trade into a duel and every session into a climb.

One year ago (Dec 2024) it was just a crazy notebook concept. Now, thanks to the squad, it's a live 1v1 arena where traders queue, rage, adapt and flex like any other ranked title.

Off the record: Translated His first game with 16 years old, keeps His old consoles, like gameboy, dreamcast, ps1, ps2...Also Champion division in Rocket League, clears Through the Fire and Flames on Expert at 70%+ in Guitar Hero. Whatever game you put in front of him, He will tryhard it 100%

PLAYSTYLE: HIGH APM, HIGH RISK, ZERO OFF DAYS.

Andrés Meneses

Co-Founder

A telecom engineer who's been deep in crypto long enough to see every cycle and every narrative. He's the one making sure Versus has real economic logic behind the fun: incentives, ladders, risk and rewards that actually make sense over time.

When the team wants to ship something wild, he's the voice saying: "Okay, but what does this do to the game economy?". He reads token flows and structures like a blueprint and turns them into rules players don't notice, but feel, while pushing BD so Versus grows with the right partners.

Off the record: featured in Entrepreneur, top 1 influencer in Dubai, stacked with awards and accolades… yet somehow still manages to sacrifice a password to the void every now and then.

PLAYSTYLE: LONG-TERM THINKING WITH OCCASIONAL MEMORY WIPES.

Victor

Fullstack Engineering

The dev who makes the game feel instant and unbreakable. From frontend UI and micro-interactions to sockets, infra and backends — he owns the full stack, making sure queues, timers and duels don't fall apart mid-match.

You won't see his face on the site, but you'll feel his work every time a match starts smoothly and ends without a single desync. Silent commits, loud impact.

Off the record: met Sergio in the most casual way possible and now they queue up twice a month for Magic: The Gathering sessions. From random encounter to core builder, some parties just work.

PLAYSTYLE: INVISIBLE CARRY, 100% TECH DAMAGE.

Juanda

Creative Director

He doesn't just see "features", he sees moments: tension, mind-games, comebacks, and rematches. Juanda shapes how Versus feels as a universe — from the tone of quickchat to the way a final second flip should hit your stomach.

His job is to keep the experience closer to a late-night ranked session with friends than a cold trading dashboard. If something feels flat, he rewrites it until it has a soul.

Off the record: He met Sergio playing fortnite and now they are best friends, He's lazy by default, lethal when locked in. Has sold artwork to Tyga and other major artists when he decides to actually ship. "THIS IS ART" it's the most accurate description of what happens when he cares.

PLAYSTYLE: LORE, CHAOS, AND LAST-SECOND TURNAROUNDS.

Rubén

Player Feedback & Live Ops

The bridge between players and the build. He turns raw feedback, tilted DMs and random screenshots into clear, actionable changes: what needs to be nerfed, what needs to be buffed, and what needs to be deleted before it ruins a season.

When things get noisy, he's the one keeping the team calm, synced and pointed at the right problems so the ladder stays competitive instead of frustrating.

Off the record: coordinates the entire company at techno BPM. Also getting married soon, so congrats are in order... Or condolences?

PLAYSTYLE: SUPPORT MAIN, FULL TEAM BUFFS, WEDDING BUFF INCOMING.

The on-chain shepherd of the Versus herd. Vacas on Chain takes care of the community the way others take care of PnL: always listening, always scanning for what players actually need, and turning that into real rewards.

From daily vibes to long-term community health, he's making sure queues don't feel empty, channels don't feel dead, and that the ecosystem stays fun to be in — not just to trade in.

Off the record: gym rat, zero bullshit, genuinely cares about people. He's built communities before and knows how to keep them alive without burning anyone out, including himself. Expect the same energy for Versus and every KOL who comes through.
