M. Nihat Gurmen

M. Nihat Gurmen is a co-founder of Dexalot, the Avalanche order-book DEX. His own X bio reads "Co-Founder dexalot"; in Avalaunch’s 2022 AMA recap he introduces himself as "one of the co-founders of the Dexalot project" and is billed as CEO. Later third-party profiles instead give the CEO title to his co-founder, so the title is recorded as-of-2022.

Named in FIRST-PARTY prose as co-founder of Dexalot (CEO as of the 2022 AMA). Sourced in the 2026-09-04 AVAX DeFi founder-cluster research pass (batch defi-founders-2026-09-04); this row exists to carry that researched edge, not because the person appears in any directory.

Enrichment note

This entry is a SHELL created from the 2026-09-04 typed-edge research pass. Its prose restates what the cited first-party sources say and nothing more — it is not editorial and no biography has been written. It exists so the graph can carry the researched typed edge for M. Nihat Gurmen; replace it with a researched About body before it carries coverage.
