Alphapoint Named a 2026 US FinTech Awards Finalist

We're proud to share that Alphapoint has been named a finalist in the Digital Assets Award category at the 2026 US FinTech Awards. 

The US FinTech Awards recognize the companies, teams, and individuals driving innovation across US financial technology, with categories spanning product and service, organizations, initiatives, and individual talent. 

This year’s competition drew a strong field of entries, with Alphapoint selected among the finalists following a highly competitive judging process.

Winners will be announced at a grand ceremony in New York on November 19, 2026.

About the digital assets award

The Digital Assets Award is open to organizations involved in the creation, distribution, or management of digital assets, including tokens, crypto assets, and CBDCs. That breadth is the point, as the category looks beyond the existence of a product itself and evaluates how effectively that product or service meets customer needs, its potential to achieve scale, what differentiates it from competitors, and the innovation involved in bringing it to market. 

As digital assets increasingly integrate into mainstream financial infrastructure, institutions are no longer questioning whether to engage but how to do it with the governance, permissions, and reporting they expect from any core financial system.

Achieving this high standard requires infrastructure that is compliant by design, operates across various chains and issuers, and provides institutions with genuine control over their assets instead of requiring them to relinquish control.

Why Alphapoint fits the category

Alphapoint provides digital asset infrastructure that helps institutions launch, operate, and scale digital asset businesses across trading, treasury, liquidity, wallets, payments, and tokenized assets.

In practice, that means:

• Comprehensive institutional trading infrastructure that includes spot, margin, perpetual futures, brokerage, and large block trading capabilities.
• Liquidity and market access through aggregated liquidity, smart order routing, and multi-venue connectivity.
• Tokenization and stablecoin infrastructure for issuing, managing, and settling digital and tokenized assets.
• Payments and wallet infrastructure supporting crypto and fiat flows, merchant settlement, configurable controls, and custody integrations.
• Stablecoin treasury workflows for institutions managing digital value across wallets, chains, issuers, and counterparties.
• Yield capabilities supporting configurable staking, lending, and digital asset yield programs.

What differentiates Alphapoint is the breadth of that infrastructure combined with more than a decade of experience operating in live digital asset markets. Instead of focusing on a single aspect of the digital asset ecosystem, Alphapoint provides a flexible foundation that institutions can utilize across multiple business models, adapting as their digital asset strategies evolve.

The through-line is simple: give institutions the infrastructure to operate digital assets at scale while maintaining the control, flexibility, and governance expected from financial systems.

Moreover, this aligns with a significant market shift. Digital assets are increasingly being used across payments, treasury, settlement, and tokenized financial products, creating demand for infrastructure that can support these use cases at scale.

Alphapoint is strategically positioned for this shift as its platform supports a multitude of digital asset workflows rather than being limited to a single application. Institutions can start with trading, liquidity, treasury, payments, or tokenization and expand over time as their needs evolve. This gives Alphapoint a clear path to scale alongside the wider adoption of digital assets.

More than a decade building digital asset infrastructure

Alphapoint entered the digital asset market in 2013, when much of the industry was still experimental.

Since then, the company has helped institutions bring digital asset products into production across multiple markets and use cases. Over that time, we have supported over 150 clients in more than 35 countries, processing over $1 trillion in activity across our platform, powering digital asset programs including Chivo in El Salvador, Wenia by Bancolombia, and NDAX, the largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume in Canada.

Being selected as a finalist for the Digital Assets Award acknowledges both our operational history and the direction in which the market is moving. Digital assets are increasingly becoming part of mainstream financial infrastructure, and the institutions adopting them need systems that can scale with that transition. Alphapoint has been building those systems for more than a decade.

We're proud to be recognized by the US FinTech Awards and look forward to the winners being announced on November 19.
