About us
Digital asset infrastructure developed in partnership with pioneering institutions.
How Copper started.
Founded in 2018 by Dimitry Tokarev, Copper was created to offer institutional investors a safe entrance into the world of digital assets. Recognising the demand for fundamental infrastructure, Copper developed a robust set of products that encouraged increased adoption, and quickly became the preferred choice for institutions.

Innovation is at the core of Copper.
Copper's foundational product revolutionised the digital asset custody market by eliminating single points of failure. Our award-winning MPC custody solution features three shards, each independently created and controlled by separate parties, and fortified with a 2 out of 3 quorum for transaction signing. Leveraging this robust infrastructure, we have embarked on a transformative journey in the digital asset space.
2020
ClearLoop, the industry’s first off-exchange settlement solution was created in response to security risks associated with trading on exchange. Since it was brought to market in 2020 it has become an indispensable solution for professional traders as it offers the fasted settlement times of t+4 hours and is connected with eight top-tier exchanges.
2022
With rapidly growing institutional adoption, Copper recognised the need for more evolved financial market infrastructure. Launching our Prime Services division in 2022 brought settlement and risk services to the growing number of institutions entering the market.
2023
Copper continues to innovate with the recent launch of Copper Network, the first custodian-agnostic, scalable, and private digital asset settlement network with over 600 active counterparties. A significant milestone as we continue our mission to become the primary gateway to digital assets for institutional investors.
