  • Atani was recently authorized by the Bank of Spain as a provider of exchange services for virtual assets and fiduciary currency, and as a custodian of electronic wallets.
  • Atani has launched its own exchange brokerage service, giving users access to the combined digital assets and liquidity of the top global crypto exchanges from a single account.
  • The funds will allow Atani to grow its exchange service and accelerate its international expansion.

 

Spain-based crypto fintech startup Atani, is announcing the successful completion of a funding round of $6 million.

The round has been led by Cometa, the Mexican venture capital fund, and has been participated by JME Ventures, Conexo Ventures, and CDTI, along with a roster of business angels experts in Web3, such as Neil Cunha-Gomes, Head of FinTech & Crypto for EMEA at Softbank.

Trusted by over 300,000 traders around the globe, Atani is the crypto broker where any crypto asset can be found and traded. Users can securely buy and sell thousands of tokens across the world's leading exchanges, analyze the markets, and manage their portfolios - all from a single account.

Atani was founded in 2019, serves users from more than 200 countries, processes more than 1,500 million in trading volume, and was recently granted the regulatory authorization by the Bank of Spain, as a Virtual Assets Service Provider. This authorization has enabled Atani to launch its own exchange service with the greatest regulatory guarantees.

“Before Atani existed, crypto traders had to open multiple accounts with different exchanges, devote countless hours to learn how to use each of them and get frustrated trying to do things as basic as executing an order or checking their balance. The crypto ecosystem was missing an experience similar to that of digital stock brokers” said Paul Barroso, Co-founder & CPO of Atani.

“We founded Atani back in 2019 driven by a long-term vision of making investing in crypto markets simple, efficient, and secure. Over the years, our team has proven its unique ability to deliver high-performing regulated financial infrastructure. In the current market context, we are more committed than ever to building the next generation of financial technology” added Haydée Barroso, Co-founder & CEO.

“Atani has built infrastructure for the foundational use cases of web 3.0, transacted volumes and user activity validates the need for such a platform. Going forward, we are particularly excited about how they will enable crypto use cases for businesses: allowing them to expand their financial products offering to end users,” added Pepe Bolaños, Managing Partner at Cometa and early backer of Bitso, Latin America’s first crypto unicorn.

Atani combines the liquidity and assets of the different crypto exchanges, automatically routing each trade to the platform that offers the best price, allowing its clients to access all the cryptocurrencies in the market from a single account. The service is currently available in more than 200 countries. The company will use the funding to accelerate the growth of its exchange brokerage service and expand globally.
