Ethos DeFi was formed through the merger of Avrio and Zircon Global Technologies, the parent company of Ethos, to accelerate the Ethos vision of accessible, self-custodial finance.&#x20;

This partnership combines Ethos’s proven DeFi technology and user base with Avrio’s global fintech infrastructure, deep industry relationships, and market reach. The new entity, Ethos DeFi, unites both organizations under a shared mission — to make decentralized finance as intuitive and trusted as traditional banking, while pioneering new products like **Ethos Indexes** that simplify crypto and real-world asset investing for consumers and institutions alike.

This formation marks a major evolution of Ethos into a scalable, media-supported, and AI-powered ecosystem positioned to lead the next wave of mainstream DeFi adoption.
