Building the future

Bitpanda is transforming the way retail investors trade by enabling access to tokenized digital assets. Through tokenization, Bitpanda is able to offer fractional shares of any asset class, whether these be traditionally liquid (Stocks, Bonds, ETF’s) or illiquid (Real Estate, Private Equity). The platform currently supports over 30 digital assets including currencies and precious metals (Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium).

‍

Bitpanda’s transparency and accessibility is supported through services like 24/7 trading, real-time settlement, no minimum fees and cross-platform compatibility (iOS, Android, desktop). With a vision to become Europe’s leading Neobroker, Bitpanda is rapidly expanding its platform across countries and asset classes.

MMaaS is radically different than traditional liquidity provisions where issuers fully own their liquidity and can control the strategy according to their needs.

To support their vision of scalable and regulated market-making in crypto, Flowdesk offers banking-grade compliance and stringent procedures to guarantee they always work in the best interests of issuers.
