Security first blockchain startup KryptoGO raised USD$3 M seed round, expanding its market presence in the US
Taiwan-based regulatory technology developer KryptoGO has raised USD$3 million in its seed funding round. The round was participated by global venture capital firm Hive Ventures, alongside other VCs including Taiwan’s National Development Council, Red Building Capital, AVA Angels, New Economy Ventures, Hao Fong Investment and Pegatron Venture Capital.
KryptoGO, the first blockchain company to receive both ISO/IEC 27001 and 27701 information certifications, will utilize the funds to expand its market presence in the United States, in addition to growing its team and launching new product features later in the year.
“In today’s digital world, it is critical that businesses and individuals find more efficient ways to access, track and secure their assets. In the realm of decentralized finance, this is even more pertinent as such financial assets have soared in monetary value over recent years. With informational transparency and data security being placed at the forefront of its technologies, we are impressed by KryptoGO’s exemplary track record in its flagship solutions, and we look forward to seeing their future developments within the RegTech and DeFi spaces,” said Yan Lee, Founding Partner, Hive Ventures.
“Decentralized finance is gaining strong momentum in today’s financial ecosystem, but its digital complexities and growing ecosystem of chains and DApps have also shone light on the need for a simple, unified, and trusted gateway into the world of Web3 for Institutional and entry level users alike,” said Kordan Ou, founder and CEO of KryptoGO. “This is where we come in. With secure, compliance-based technologies that are trusted by financial institutions, our users will enjoy a conducive environment where they can obtain, manage and grow their crypto portfolio, all while being in compliance with traditional and DeFi needs.”
Founded in 2019, KryptoGO aims to empower financial institutions and individuals by establishing a more secure and transparent environment for managing crypto assets and decentralized applications (DApps) operating in the Web3 ecosystem. The company uses natural language processing technology equipped with a comprehensive global anti-money laundering database and artificial intelligence (AI) systems that enable cross-comparison of anti-money laundering data and other risky behavior.
Just in 2021, approximately USD$3.2 billion worth of cryptocurrency was stolen by hackers, resulting in the emphasis on data security skyrocketing. To address these vulnerabilities, KryptoGO has implemented proactive and active approaches to user data security through its flagship mobile wallet and compliance-based platform.
The company launched its flagship KryptoGO Wallet, a decentralized cross-chain wallet with financial identity verification and DeFi asset management functionality. Leveraging the company’s unique cross-chain technology, the KryptoGO wallet ensures that its users can integrate and manage cross-chain assets on a single platform and identify favorable DeFi investment opportunities across a multitude of chains in DeFi, all while ensuring data security.
The cross-chain technology present in the KryptoGO Wallet enables crypto tokens and information to be seamlessly shared across different blockchains, addressing any scaling limitations in the process.
The KryptoGO wallet supports several cryptocurrency tokens such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Solana (SOL), TRON, MATIC, and more. Additionally, the wallet is embedded with security features that include Secure Enclave with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption as well as biometric and passcode identification mechanisms. This means that users can employ facial or touch recognition in accessing their wallets, providing a personalized user experience with optimal data protection. All multi-chain assets are managed simply by the phone number and are securely stored in the hardware storage guarded by the systems on chip (SoCs).
As the first blockchain company to receive both ISO/IEC 27001 and 27701 information certifications, KryptoGO also builds itself on maximized user security against financial data breaches. The company further emphasizes user-centricity in its products and solutions, primarily by providing users with the native experience of using a comprehensive mobile wallet to avoid the complexities of using multiple individual decentralized applications (DApp) browsers when addressing their DeFi needs.
In addition to its current partnership efforts that saw the launch of the NFT Lucky Bag[6] earlier this year, KryptoGO plans to expand its robust partnership and customer base to the United States, Japan, and Southeast Asia through collaborations with ecosystem partners in these regions. Partners will range from NFT collections to GameFi projects and DeFi platforms – all with the aim of fostering greater socialization and sense of community among KryptoGO wallet users.
The company also aims to embed such social elements into the KryptoGO wallet’s features, potentially enabling users to interact and share information based on their crypto investments and NFT collectables. Currently, the company is on its way to launching its first NFT GEM pass that will grant users access to premium features in the KryptoGO Wallet later this year.
