Our level of paranoia level is right at the top. The security for crypto assets must be even on a higher level than for banks.

The Founder
We talk to the CEO and Co-Founder Martin Kreitmair . He is not only with Tangany, but also a member of the Board of Germany's blockchain association called Bundesblock He has a master's in computer science and has been working at a startup for more than seven years, where he was hired as the 7th employee and saw the company grow.
First, we were two founders, …joined by former colleagues from an agency.
Martin Kreitmair, CEO and Co-Founder Tangany
Martin became interested early in Blockchain and Bitcoin but was no miner -. Which he partly regrets now � He felt like it was the right time to start his company after many years as a startup employee.
Security is key for crypto custody.

The Startup
Tangany (https://tangany.com/ ) is the all-in-one cloud suite to easily offer crypto and digital asset custody to your clients and customers. They do not offer services for retail customers, but rather to fintechs and financial institutions for save keeping of digital and crypto assets (including, but not limited to cryptocurrencies). They are a regulated custodian.
The product of Tangany is a white-label tool (via API) to enable their customers like startups, so they can offer crypto wallets to their (retail)-clients. The big advantage of Tangany for their clients is that they don't need to get a license since the company is already regulated under German law to be a custodian.
It took us a very very long time to design our architecture… to the highest thinkable level of security.
Martin Kreitmair, CEO and Co-Founder Tangany
Excited about a Digital Euro
Tangany would be quite happy if a digital Euro, based on Blockchain is realized, this would be a huge opportunity for them. Since every citizen would need a digital wallet as Tangany could provide.
I am very convinced that a digital Euro will come, one way or another.
Martin Kreitmair, CEO and Co-Founder Tangany
Venture Capital Funding
Tangany raised a venture capital round in January 2020 and currently, they are in preparation for another round.
