On August 26, Kostas Kryptos, co-founder of Mysten Labs, announced the launch of a new trading platform named Havenex, which aims to provide infrastructure services for traditional financial institutions rather than functioning as a cryptocurrency exchange.
Havenex is currently in the process of completing its Series A funding round, with a tight allocation, and is also undergoing authorization with the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA). The platform's focus is on offering standardized technical capabilities to FinTech firms, banks, and asset managers, allowing these institutions to provide digital asset services without the need to develop extensive in-house technology.
The company positions itself as a compliance-oriented infrastructure provider, emphasizing that compliance is essential for its business model. This approach reflects the evolving regulatory landscape in Europe, particularly following the implementation of the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). Havenex aims to establish a governance system that meets regulatory requirements, which is crucial for gaining recognition among institutional clients.
Sui联合创始人推出Havenex，专注于机构级加密金融基础设施
8月26日，Mysten Labs的联合创始人Kostas Kryptos宣布推出一个名为Havenex的新交易平台，旨在为传统金融机构提供基础设施服务，而不是作为加密货币交易所运作。
Havenex目前正在完成A轮融资，分配情况紧张，同时也正在接受奥地利金融市场管理局(FMA)的授权。该平台专注于向金融科技公司、银行和资产管理公司提供标准化的技术能力，使这些机构能够在无需开发大量内部技术的情况下提供数字资产服务。
该公司的定位是合规导向的基础设施提供者，强调合规性对其商业模式至关重要。这一做法反映了欧洲监管环境的变化，特别是在欧盟的《加密资产市场监管》(MiCA)实施之后。Havenex旨在建立一个符合监管要求的治理体系，这对于获得机构客户的认可至关重要。
