Our take

Lukka develops middle and back-office crypto asset software products that help solve complexities in the crypto ecosystem. Specifically, it processes post-trade blockchain data into information that is more manageable for business.

Blockchain technology is seeing ever-more use cases in the financial sector; combined with the steady development of, and trust in, blockchain regulatory control, the use of blockchain for financial assets looks set to take off on a global scale. The demand, therefore, for intermediary products facilitating this adoption is likely to see strong growth.

Lukka looks set to stay ahead of this uptick, having secured $110 million in funding in early 2022, and reaching a valuation of $1.3 billion, earning it unicorn status. The company is using these funds for its aggressive growth and global expansion strategy.

What should prove especially profitable for Lukka, in an area of development that still inspires some caution in participants, is its strong focus on meeting industry-trusted technical standards. This regulation-compliant reputation is helping it to maintain its broad customer base which is spread across both the crypto native sector and traditional financial firms.
