“Can a crypto-backed lending platform become the regulated, full-stack digital wealth OS for both retail and institutional clients globally?”
Founded in 2018 as a crypto-backed lending platform, Nexo quickly became one of the largest centralized crypto lenders by offering instant credit lines collateralized by digital assets. As the crypto market matured, Nexo expanded into a full wealth platform — adding savings/yield products, a debit/credit card, exchange, prime brokerage, and white-label infrastructure. Following the 2022 crypto winter and regulatory scrutiny across jurisdictions, Nexo pivoted toward compliance-first positioning, filing for MiCA authorization in the EU and pursuing ISO/SOC certifications. The company is now positioning itself as the premier regulated crypto wealth platform serving both retail and institutional clients.
