# 2.0 1XBINARY ECOSYSTEM

Basically, you can access and interact with 1xBinary ecosystem, being a:

 ▸ Trader 

▸ Investor 

▸ Broker

 As the diagram below shows, all elements of the ecosystem are interconnected with Ethereum blockchain and smart contracts, which, in this case, play a role of backend.
