We provide the compliant, institutional grade rails that let asset owners, funds, issuers and financial institutions bring traditional and private assets on chain. Our platform combines blockchain and AI to power the full tokenization lifecycle. This spans issuance, smart contract based asset and fund structuring, and secure primary and secondary transfer through investor wallets. The result is greater liquidity, transparency and access for assets that were historically hard to move. We work with issuers, funds and capital allocators across multiple markets, giving them the technology and compliance foundation to tokenize at scale.

At Koinly, we are building software to help crypto investors stay compliant with their tax obligations and keep track of their investments. We launched the first version of our platform in 2019 and have since grown to over 1.5M users by solving a highly technical problem and saving our users countless hours of work (see what our customers say). All of this with a small team of super intelligent and dedicated individuals! Our values & work environment As a startup we value efficiency above all else. Our team structure is flat and focused where every individual has a critical role that directly impacts our users. You will not find any middle managers or pointless meetings here. Our environment is best suited for people who are hands-on, like to take ownership, and most importantly, are self-learners. Our team is based in Europe, so we try to work in the UK timezone but are flexible. Everyone is expected to work 40 hours and no more. We highly value people who can prioritise their work, know what tools to use to work efficiently and can set up processes to amplify the impact of their time. At Koinly, we’re truly passionate about the crypto space, so a genuine interest in crypto—beyond just Bitcoin—is a big plus. We look forward to hearing from you!
