Anchorage Digital is an institutional-grade crypto platform founded in 2017 by Diogo Mónica and Nathan McCauley. It is best known for Anchorage Digital Bank N.A., the first—and currently only—federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S. This OCC (Office of the Comptroller of the Currency) charter gives Anchorage the regulatory status of a national bank, allowing it to offer digital asset services with the same federal oversight as traditional banks.
The company provides custody, trading, staking, governance, and settlement services—all under one integrated, compliance-focused platform. Anchorage serves institutional clients such as hedge funds, family offices, fintechs, banks, asset managers, crypto protocols, and even government agencies.
