Alkemi

Alkemi is a decentralized liquidity network that provides compliant DeFi solutions, facilitating access to both permissioned and permissionless liquidity pools for digital assets. The network offers tools for borrowing, lending, and earning yields on Ethereum-based assets, with reporting and risk management features designed to meet institutional compliance requirements. Alkemi bridges the gap between traditional finance and decentralized finance by providing a compliant gateway for institutions to participate in DeFi markets, offering KYC/AML verification, risk controls, and transparent reporting. The platform enables users to earn yield on their digital assets while maintaining regulatory compliance, addressing a key barrier to institutional adoption of decentralized finance. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Toronto, Canada, Alkemi has raised $5.125 million in Series A funding from investors including Xpring, Consensys, Outlier Ventures, Techstars, and GSR Ventures.
