Whether in the world of payment, finance, fashion, art or retail, more and more companies have decided to adopt blockchain and digital assets. However, these companies are faced with a fundamental problem: how to adopt these new assets without jeopardizing their accounting processes and their “auditability”? Created in 2018 by Antoine Scalia, Cryptio is a startup that has taken on the incredible challenge of inventing the foundations of accounting and financial reporting for digital assets (crypto-currencies, NFT, digital assets). How? By offering a SaaS accounting, auditing and tax solution that bridges the gap between blockchain and accounting systems - turning data into verifiable records for accounting, treasury and tax reporting. We enable pioneering companies in the crypto ecosystem, large enterprises and financial institutions to confidently navigate the fragmented digital asset landscape. Our mission is to tackle one of the biggest challenges in crypto right now - building the infrastructure to help institutional adoption. And we're playing to win. Cyptio wants to become the source of truth in the world of crypto!
