From Scams to Success - Interview with Co-founder of Sonar Platform

Jacob Camilleri, co-founder of Sonar Platform, shares the journey from a small Telegram group helping users avoid crypto scams to building a full-stack platform that blends AI with DeFi and CeFi. With a background in public administration and finance, Jacob saw firsthand how fragmented and frustrating decentralized finance can be for everyday users. That realization led to Sonar’s mission: create a unified, user-friendly experience that empowers people to navigate crypto with confidence.
Sonar uses a network of AI agents to monitor on-chain data, surface actionable insights, and proactively manage portfolio risk—acting like a personalized wealth manager for Web3. The platform connects multiple ecosystems, enabling users to track and act on opportunities across both exchanges and DeFi protocols, all through a sleek interface. With its token launch and main product rollout approaching, Sonar aims to bring clarity and safety to a space still dominated by complexity and friction.
Jacob, CEO & Co-Founder of Sonar, saw the dark side of crypto—scams, confusion, and chaos. Instead of walking away, he built a platform to make DeFi safer & smarter.
