We are happy to announce our $4.7 million funding to build the most trusted, simple, and efficient digital custody platform for crypto-native businesses.

Started in April 2021 by serial entrepreneur Mahin Gupta, with prominent crypto start-ups like India’s first blockchain company BuySellBitco.in and the country’s largest exchange platform ZebPay under his belt, Liminal has achieved several breakthroughs in its first year of operations. Processed over $2.5 Billion worth of transactions, over $400 million in automated wallet refill processed, and it continues to manage $50 million worth of assets under protection.

Our mission at Liminal to provide simple, secure, and efficient digital asset custody has received a significant boost with marquee venture capital and angel investors coming on board. The list of investors joining us in the journey includes the likes of Elevation Capital, LD Capital, Woodstock, Nexus Ventures, CoinDCX, Hashed, Cadenza Ventures, Valud, Better Capital, and Sparrow Capital. Along with them, the list of angel investors includes, Andreas Antonopoulos, Balaji Srinivasan, Sandeep Nailwal, Jaynti Kanani, and Ajeet Khurana, amongst others.

By assuring the safety of crypto assets, we encourage the growth of crypto-native businesses, including SMEs and web3 start-ups, helping them streamline their processes while reducing cost overheads. In addition, our collaboration with trusted global insurers for Liminal Key further enhances the safety of our customers’ funds while future-proofing our platform.

“Rapid adoption of digital assets is going to be driven by multiple new-age crypto businesses and institutions. These businesses are increasingly demanding plug-and-play custody solutions that are built taking their unique needs into account, including security, regulatory readiness, and operational efficiency. We have been very impressed with Mahin and his team’s customer obsession and knowledge of this space. We are thrilled to partner with Liminal on this journey,” said Vaas Bhaskar — Principal at Elevation Capital.
