AMINA Bank, a FINMA-regulated crypto bank based in Switzerland, has partnered with Tokeny, a blockchain platform owned by Apex Group, to create a regulated infrastructure for institutional tokenization, the companies said on Thursday.

Under the arrangement, AMINA (formerly known as SEBA Bank) will handle the banking, custody and regulatory oversight for traditional assets, while Tokeny will provide the technology for turning those assets into tokens. The setup enables clients to transfer funds seamlessly between traditional accounts and blockchain-based systems.
Tokeny’s platform, built on the ERC-3643 standard, adds a compliance layer that allows only authorized investors to hold or trade tokenized assets.
Together, AMINA and Tokeny say their collaboration will reduce the time-to-market for tokenized instruments from months to weeks, laying the groundwork for a more connected and regulated onchain financial system.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
