As a Digital Asset Service Provider registered in France and Luxembourg, Coinhouse has supported more than 20 major French and international brands by enabling them to securely acquire and hold Land in Metaverses, or to accept crypto payments converted immediately into euros selling digital objects or NFTs, without having to manage the complexity of a portfolio or the accounting management of volatile assets.

We have gone from 5 employees to more than 100, from a crypto exchange activity, a subsidiary of Ledger, to an independent scale-up which has raised a total of nearly €50 million with renowned French and international investors, including a European bank. Traditional players in the financial world and capital investors are beginning to grasp the enormous potential of the crypto market, despite its cycles and upheavals linked to its innovation potential and its youth.

"As a VC fund consisting of serial entrepreneurs, we invest in serial entrepreneurs' companies which are growing rapidly. Given current market conditions, we are supporting Coinhouse to expand their proven business model, launch new products, address new customer segments, such as Family Offices, and expand activities across Europe."
