Elevator Pitch
Metaco’s platform, Harmonize™, is the institutional standard for mission-critical digital asset custody infrastructure, mandated by 6 out of top 10 global custodians, and proven to enable many regional banks, exchanges, financial institutions and corporates to launch new business models in the digital asset economy. When interacting with and operating digital assets represented on private or public blockchains, institutions are faced with many challenges and trade-offs, from how to securely issue or safekeep those assets, to how to create liquidity and networked services around these classes. Harmonize, with its bank-grade security architecture, underpinned by asset-agnostic compliance frameworks, removes these trade-offs and allows top tier financial institutions such as Citi, BNP Paribas, Societe Generale – FORGE, DBS and others to create long-lasting competitive advantage in the digital asset economy.
