About Us
Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive and risky—supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.
Paxos is redefining financial infrastructure. Our blockchain solutions tokenize, custody, trade and settle assets for enterprise clients, enabling the trustworthy and instantaneous movement of any asset at any time. As the economy evolves more rapidly than ever before, we are committed to the innovation that will make its new financial system a reality – and by working within regulatory frameworks, we’re creating an ecosystem built with integrity.
We encourage the financial industry to service transparently, raise the bar and discover new ways to serve more people.
