As we celebrate a decade of Bity, we reflect on our journey from a pioneering startup in 2014 to becoming a key player in cryptocurrency market. This path has been marked by relentless innovation and a steadfast adherence to our founding vision. Over these ten years, Bity has undergone significant evolution, truly embodying the transformative potential of blockchain technology in reshaping financial systems. As we introduce our new branding — which includes a revamped logo, a redesigned website, and a new crypto wallet filled with fresh features — we are reminded of the core essence that remains unchanged: the experience and trust we’ve cultivated within our community.
Founded with a firm belief in the ground-breaking power of blockchain, Bity is envisioned to democratise access to cryptocurrencies. Our key milestones — including assisting in the retrieval of funds from The DAO in 2016, launching Switzerland’s first Crypto-ATM, and becoming a trusted on/off-ramp platform for more than 100,000 customers in over 100 countries — showcase our commitment to user empowerment. Our journey has always been guided by Swiss precision, with a focus on privacy, security, and compliance, underscored by AML and financial audits from BDO since the start of this year.
Our Swiss heritage has endowed us with a legacy of trust, privacy, safeguarded by a robust legal and financial framework. Bity serves as a bridge for both users and developers, providing a fully- integrated, user-friendly and versatile platform that supports an extensive range of cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies. Our dedication to privacy and automation, along with adherence to Swiss standards, ensures an unparalleled user experience.
The unveiling of our new branding is a major milestone. It symbolizes more than a visual shift ; it reaffirms our mission to bridge the traditional financial systems with the decentralized future. This transformation does not alter the essence of what Bity represents. The foundation of our service — built on trust, quality, and our commitment to users — remains the cornerstone of our identity. As we evolve, our rich history and the experiences shared with our community continue to be our guiding light.
As Bity embarks on the next decade, we do so with the excitement of a startup and the wisdom of industry veterans. We’re not merely celebrating ten years of existence; we’re set for a future where Bity continues to lead, innovate, and empower. Our new branding, website and crypto wallet extend an invitation to join us on this journey, which has only started — a journey to explore the boundless potential of a decentralized economy.
In summary, while Bity’s appearance may change, our foundational pillars — trust, innovation, and community — remain steadfast. Our branding has evolved, but our essence has not, because history can’t be bought. Instead, we’re creating it together, one block at a time. Welcome to the new Bity, where the future of finance is not only envisioned but actively built with you at its core.
