Independent Swiss nonprofit advancing Cardano through standards, governance, education, and enterprise adoption.

Institutional staking and validator-infrastructure provider operating across more than 30 proof-of-stake networks, with research and security capabilities for digital-asset institutions.

An appchain ecosystem built around the Cosmos SDK, IBC interoperability, and sovereign chains.

Web3 investment and high-frequency market-making firm providing capital, liquidity, OTC trading, and ecosystem support to blockchain companies.

Active Winter 2022 Y Combinator company tracked in the adjacent-technology layer for hardware and chips. The YC profile supplies the directory classification and displayed location; the profile does not imply a crypto-native business unless the relevance badge says direct.

The largest smart contract ecosystem, anchoring DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, rollups, and tokenization.

Non-profit steward supporting Ethereum research, protocol development, grants, and ecosystem resilience. The Foundation is explicit that it does not control Ethereum: it describes its role as helping the community preserve its values while deliberately trying to subtract its own power.

SR Saphirstein AG operates Fiat24 under a Swiss FINMA Article 1b fintech licence. Fiat24 publishes multi-currency accounts with Swiss IBANs, Mastercard debit, crypto top-ups, Ethereum NFT account access, and ERC-20 cash tokens. It is not a bank, and funds are not covered by Swiss deposit insurance.

Independent Swiss financial-market supervisor responsible for authorization, supervision, enforcement, regulation within its mandate, and anti-money-laundering supervision. FINMA's remit includes licensed banks and other supervised financial institutions, while a specific firm's status must be checked in the official database. A FINMA page, registration, or supervised service should not be read as approval of a token, investment return, or unrelated group product.

On-chain and market data platform for digital asset research.

Swiss-operated non-custodial account connecting user-controlled wallets to crypto conversion, partner-held fiat balances, personal IBANs, and virtual or physical debit-card access. Holyheld's July 2026 terms apply to users resident in or located in Switzerland, identify Holyheld Labs AG as the operator and an SRO member, and state that regulated partners provide e-money and card services. The current public terms do not name the card issuer or card network, so neither is inferred here.

Global venture firm founded in Geneva and operating from a current multi-office network across the United States and Europe.

Foundation funding and coordinating public goods for Cosmos, IBC, and appchain infrastructure.

Foundation supporting M0, infrastructure for builders issuing application-specific stablecoins.

Global accelerator network supporting early-stage founders in complex, regulated, and high-impact technology markets.

A scalable L1 built around usability, account abstraction and chain abstraction. The project now positions itself as infrastructure for the agent economy, unifying liquidity across many chains and keeping execution and inference confidential — a notably narrower framing than the general-purpose consumer L1 it launched as.

A multichain network for interoperable chains, shared security, and on-chain governance.

The ETH Zurich Quantum Center coordinates more than 35 research groups working across quantum science, computing, communication, and sensing.

Zurich operating company behind Relai's bitcoin-only mobile and web apps. Relai states that the app creates an encrypted wallet whose private keys are not accessible to the company; the profile does not describe customer crypto as a bank deposit.

Remotion is a React-based framework for creating, parameterizing, and rendering videos programmatically, including agent-assisted workflows, batch rendering, and deployable video applications. The map separates Remotion AG's Zurich operating base from the US subsidiary's published legal mailing address.

Smart account and multisig infrastructure widely used by DAOs, teams, funds, and protocols.

A fast monolithic chain with strong activity in DeFi, payments, consumer apps, and DePIN.

A non-profit foundation based in Zug, Switzerland, dedicated to the decentralization, adoption and security of the Solana ecosystem. It runs a grants program aimed at censorship resistance and a delegation program that stakes to validators meeting performance requirements, which is its main lever for decentralizing the validator set.

GCGRA lists Sportradar AG as a gaming-related vendor. Sportradar describes a B2B sports-technology business serving sports, media, and betting markets and publishes both its St. Gallen headquarters and Singapore office. This profile separates sports-data and supplier infrastructure from consumer wagering: a vendor licence does not make Sportradar the operator of customer sportsbooks, and no crypto-payment claim is inferred.

Swiss digital bank and trading group whose Swiss bank holds a FINMA banking licence. Swissquote provides retail and institutional crypto trading, native-network transfers for supported assets, staking, and custody, including segregated custody arrangements for institutional clients. Product access, contracting entity, investor protection, custody fees, and transfer support vary by jurisdiction and asset; a banking licence does not remove crypto market, issuer, or sub-custodian risk.

Regulated digital-asset banking group combining custody, trading, staking, tokenization, and investment services for professional clients.

FINMA-authorized Swiss securities firm providing institutional custody, tokenization, issuance, trading, and staking infrastructure.

Swiss nonprofit steward funding and supporting Tezos protocol research, development, education, and ecosystem growth.

A consumer-focused L1 with distribution through Telegram mini apps and payments.

Foundation supporting the TON ecosystem, Telegram-linked apps, payments, grants, and developer growth.

Foundation supporting decentralized web research, Polkadot grants, education, and protocol development.

Crypto exchange group operating the WhiteBIT Nova card for eligible users in named European countries and Ukraine. Card spending draws from selected assets in the custodial exchange account and converts them for payment. Wallester AS is the separately regulated Visa issuer and payment-services provider. WhiteBIT's general agreement assigns different fiat, crypto, technical, and support functions to different group entities, so the profile does not collapse the group into one universal licensed entity.

xStocks is a tokenized-equities framework whose instruments represent publicly traded stocks and ETFs and are collateralized 1:1 by the corresponding underlying assets held with regulated custodians. The xStocks site identifies Backed Assets (JE) Limited as issuer and Backed Finance AG as the Swiss company maintaining the site; eligible distribution partners include Kraken and others. The published legal notices exclude the United States and U.S. persons, so this profile does not imply U.S. availability.
