Satochip accelerates global growth with strategic funding

Walloon startup Satochip is taking a major step forward by securing bridge financing to support its expansion into the United States, one of the most strategic markets for digital asset security.

Specialising in hardware solutions for self-custody, Satochip develops open-source hardware wallets designed to give users full control over their cryptocurrencies. Its approach focuses on transparency, security and user sovereignty, aligning with growing market demand.

Backed by existing investors and new business angels, the funding will enable the company to establish a local presence in the U.S., expand sales and distribution channels, and strengthen B2B partnerships across the crypto ecosystem.

At the core of Satochip’s offering is its NFC smartcard-based technology, featuring a certified secure element and supporting Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more than 1,000 tokens and NFTs. Its solutions allow users to manage digital assets independently from centralised platforms, enhancing both security and control.

Satochip’s fully open-source model is a key differentiator in a market often dominated by proprietary solutions. By enabling users and developers to audit and customise its technology, the company reinforces trust and transparency within the blockchain ecosystem.

As part of its U.S. push, the team will attend the Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, a strategic opportunity to boost visibility and accelerate commercial development.

With this funding round, Satochip confirms its ambition to become a leading player in digital asset security on a global scale, highlighting once again the ability of Belgian startups to compete in high-growth international tech markets.
