“Can a former Brazilian crypto-neobank reinvent itself as the institutional digital-asset infrastructure provider for large enterprises operating across fiat and crypto rails?”
Founded 2018 in Brazil as a hybrid digital banking platform with multi-currency wallets, instant FX, and crypto/fiat interoperability — operating a consumer app with 4M+ customers. By 2026 the company appears to have pivoted away from B2C to focus on institutional infrastructure: digital-asset integration, liquidity/payment rails, structuring, and strategic consulting for large organizations. The contact form explicitly carves out a separate channel for 'Suporte a clientes B2C (antigos usuários do app)' — 'former app users' — confirming the consumer product has been wound down.
