About Us

Anchorage Digital is a global crypto platform that enables institutions to participate in digital assets through custody, staking, trading, governance, settlement, and industry-leading security infrastructure. We are home to Anchorage Digital Bank N.A., the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, and we serve institutions worldwide through Anchorage Digital Singapore, licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and Anchorage Digital New York, which holds a BitLicense from the New York Department of Financial Services. Our self-custody wallet, Porto by Anchorage Digital, extends that platform to clients who want to hold their own keys.

Founded in 2017 in San Francisco, we now operate from offices in New York, Porto, Singapore, and Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We are funded by leading institutions including Andreessen Horowitz, GIC, Goldman Sachs, KKR, and Visa, at a valuation of $4.2 billion. Since our founding we have grown to serve many of the largest and most prestigious institutions in the world, securing tens of billions of dollars in digital assets.

Security sits at the foundation of everything we do. Our co-founders, Diogo Mónica and Nathan McCauley, are patent-holding security engineers, and that discipline runs through a platform built to be both safe and accessible. We have hired experienced talent from platform security, financial services, and distributed ledger technology to hold that standard as we scale.

Our Services

We provide an integrated institutional platform that spans the full lifecycle of digital-asset participation, from safekeeping through to active management and settlement. Our services are built to meet or exceed the security, risk-monitoring, and compliance standards that global institutions hold themselves to.

Our core offerings include:

• Custody: secure institutional custody as an unequivocal qualified custodian, built on the security infrastructure our co-founders engineered, plus self-custody through Porto by Anchorage Digital for clients who hold their own keys.
• Staking and governance: participation in network staking and on-chain governance on supported assets.
• Trading and settlement: institutional trading and settlement, including fiat on and off ramps available through Anchorage Digital Singapore.
• Banking services: through Anchorage Digital Bank N.A., institutions access custody, staking, governance, and settlement on the same regulatory footing as other US national banks.
Please note one point for clients evaluating us. Digital assets held in our custody are not guaranteed by Anchorage Digital and are not covered by FDIC, SIPC, or SDIC insurance protections. Our national bank charter places us on the same regulatory footing as other national banks, but that charter does not extend deposit-insurance protection to custodied digital assets.

Meet Our Team

We were co-founded in 2017 by Nathan McCauley, our Chief Executive Officer, and Diogo Mónica, our Executive Chairman of the Board. Both are patent-holding, world-class security engineers, and their backgrounds shaped a company where security is treated as integral rather than added on. Their conviction that trust in financial infrastructure has to be built in from the start guided our early and deliberate pursuit of federal regulation.

Our board brings together some of the most established names in finance and technology investing. Members include Chris Emanuel of GIC, Anthony Albanese of Andreessen Horowitz, Ben Pederson of KKR, Katie Biber of Paradigm, and P. Bart Stephens of Blockchain Capital, reflecting the caliber of institutions that back our work.

We are further guided by a senior advisory group, including Max Levchin, CEO of Affirm, and Stanley Druckenmiller, founder of Duquesne Capital. Across our leadership, board, and advisors, we draw on deep experience in platform security, financial services, and distributed ledger technology.

Our Credentials

Our defining credential is regulatory standing that no crypto-native company held before us. In January 2021, Anchorage Digital Bank became the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, granted by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. A national bank charter places us on the same regulatory footing as other national banks in the country, and as an unequivocal qualified custodian we work closely with federal regulators to meet stringent compliance requirements.

Our regulatory footprint extends across jurisdictions. Anchorage Digital Singapore is a licensed Major Payment Institution under the Monetary Authority of Singapore, offering equivalent security and service standards to our US bank, and Anchorage Digital New York holds a BitLicense from the New York Department of Financial Services. This combination lets global institutions choose the entity that meets or exceeds their own national standards for security, safekeeping, and compliance.

We are backed by leading institutions including Andreessen Horowitz, GIC, Goldman Sachs, KKR, and Visa, at a $4.2 billion valuation, and we secure tens of billions of dollars in digital assets on behalf of many of the world's largest institutions.
