Atato’s regulatory advantage and unique service offerings for an MPC custody solution is a major game changer for securing and executing digital asset transactions. With more companies looking to expand their services to crypto but hesitant due to lack of infrastructure, Atato’s timely appearance truly fills a pressing market need with a solution that simplifies the management and security of their digital assets.
As the first custodian in the world to offer Bring Your Own Chain / Bring Your Own Token services, Atato’s strategic investors are already involved in development trials by inviting their clients to integrate their projects with Atato. This is also helped by Atato’s attractive fee model, which is a flat fee based on the number of wallets, rather than the usual AUM (assets under management) and transaction percentage fees.
“We believe that the market has matured to a certain extent that Atato’s services are not only desired but also required in the current market. As a blockchain security provider – we recognize the need for users to add their own tokens or chains to their wallet, regardless of volume or acceptance – customers who participated in our beta were able to add any token with one click – something that previously was impossible.” said Maxime Paul, co-founder of Atato.
“In bearish markets, crypto adoption scales as infrastructure develops,” Maxime said. “We see well-funded projects with strong foundations evolving during this time – Atato will continue to support their development with our resources and technology.”
