Copper is a digital asset technology company dedicated to helping institutional investors safely acquire, trade, and store crypto assets.
Built and led by Dmitry Tokarev, a software and financial engineering specialist, the firm provides a comprehensive suite of custody, trading, and settlement solutions that reduce counterparty risk and bring greater capital and operational efficiency to digital asset markets. At the heart of Copper's offering is Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology – the gold standard in secure custody. Copper’s multi-award-winning custody system can connect to centralised exchanges, DeFi applications, and staking pools without assets leaving custody.
Built on this custody, ClearLoop is the first solution to overcome industry challenges related to counterparty risk with exchanges. It underpins a full prime services offering, connecting global exchanges and enabling customers to trade and settle directly from MPC-secured wallets. This reduces settlement times to milliseconds without blockchain dependency and enhances security, reshaping asset management.
Copper also holds industry-leading security certifications and offers strong insurance coverage from an A+ rated insurer, making it a trusted partner for safeguarding assets.
