The value of investments in crypto currency CFDs over Multi-currency accounts is protected up to a maximum of CHF 100,000 per client under Swiss legislation

Dukascoins (DUK+) held by clients in the custody of the Bank are held as a deposit in crypto currency and are therefore not protected under Swiss legislation

Private banking clients with a Savings account may store cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH, USDC, LTC, AAVE and others using the Bank’s fiduciary services. The investment process implies signing the fiduciary services agreement and selecting the high-quality custody service provider suggested either by the client or by the Bank. Fiduciary services are included in the Savings account package and benefit the holder with lower fees and an additional layer of protection. Funds on such accounts are segregated and stored separately from the funds of the rest of the clients, meaning that in case of the Bank’s bankruptcy, the funds will not fall under administration of a trustee and will only be used to repay the holder of the account. Under Swiss legislation , deposits are protected up to a maximum of CHF 100,000, and Fiduciary form of protection is usually applied to the accounts that exceed this limit.

The Bank holds its own and clients’ crypto currencies on a combination of cold and hot wallets with multi-signature access in respective blockchains and on its accounts with selected partners such as regulated crypto exchanges and other banks.

The Bank charges competitive fees for clients’ crypto currency storage.

The collaboration between Dukascopy Bank and Smart Valor crypto exchange goes live

Dukascopy Bank enables new cooperation with the registered Swiss/Lichtenstein digital assets exchange Smart Valor. The API-driven integration of Dukascopy and Smart Valor infrastructures will offer the…

Dukascopy Bank enables new cooperation with the registered Swiss/Lichtenstein digital assets exchange Smart Valor. The API-driven integration of Dukascopy and Smart Valor infrastructures will offer the shared clients an enriched environment, in which they may instantly trade 176 digital assets pairs using a Swiss bank account supporting 22 global currencies.

The exact modus operandi is identical to the existing Dukascopy - ZBX (Zillion Bits exchange) framework. The user must have an account at Dukascopy Bank and Smart Valor. Both accounts will have to be linked by the user inside the interface of Smart Valor. Once linked, the specially created 'partner' fiat sub-accounts at the Bank can be used for the automated buying and selling of cryptocurrencies at the Exchange. Under this model, Dukascopy is only taking care of the fiat funds flow, while the operations with crypto are fully under the roof of Smart Valor.

Dukascopy Bank has developed rich crypto-fiat functionality over the last several years. There are now four methods available for customers to trade crypto at the Bank. First, a client can acquire crypto (ETH, BTC, USDT) as an investment straight from Dukascopy's account and withdraw it to the blockchain. Second, a client can buy crypto from one of the Bank's crypto exchange partners. Third, a client can purchase crypto from another client of Dukascopy using the P2P crypto-fiat exchange service recently launched by the Bank. Fourth, the Bank offers leveraged trading of crypto pairs on the brokerage account using its professional trading platform.

SMART VALOR is the first European digital asset exchange listed on Nasdaq First North. The company's mission is to provide a trusted gateway to blockchain technology for investors and institutions. On the B2C side, it operates a retail digital asset exchange, custody, and asset management. On the B2B side, the company works with banks and fintech companies offering its technology as a white-label solution. SMART VALOR was one of the first crypto companies to receive financial intermediary status in Switzerland and to be registered as an exchange and custodian under the Blockchain Act of Liechtenstein.

The co-CEO of Dukascopy Bank Dr. Andre Duka states: "Despite the recent swings in the crypto markets, we at Dukascopy Bank continue to witness the growing interest and demand from our international client base to this domain of instruments. Therefore, we ceaselessly work to improve our crypto infrastructure in all possible directions including the formation of new partnerships. We are welcoming the Smart Valor Exchange as a new member of our ecosystem and have no doubt that the clients of both institutions will gain from our collaboration."

Olga Feldmeier, board chair of Smart Valor notes: "Making transactions in digital assets available to bank customers is the core mission of our B2B2C strategy. We are happy to launch this service offering by partnering with a bank that is close to us in terms of innovation mentality and is, just like us, based in one of the most prestigious and well-regulated jurisdictions - Switzerland. Two Swiss financial technology companies joining forces to deliver a better user experience and access to digital assets - this milestone will demonstrate the way forward for many traditional financial institutions which are currently contemplating available entry options."

Dukascopy Bank enables blockchain operations in Tether (USDT) for the MCA clients

Tether (USDT) is joining Ethereum (ETH) as a cryptocurrency that can be deposited/withdrawn by the MCA clients directly from/to their crypto wallets. This is also the…

Tether (USDT) is joining Ethereum (ETH) as a cryptocurrency that can be deposited/withdrawn by the MCA clients directly from/to their crypto wallets. This is also the first stable coin that the Bank is offering to its clients. 

To start the operations with Tether, the procedure remains the same as for Ethereum. The client needs to link a personal blockchain wallet to the MCA account and confirm the ownership with the signing method described here. Once this step is completed, crypto-assets can be transferred between the MCA account and the linked wallet. The information about fees is available on the website of the Bank dedicated to crypto services: www.dukas.io 

The Bank reminds its clients that if they require a wider scope of cryptocurrencies they can explore the recently launched P2P crypto exchange service. Dukascopy Bank's marketplace for P2P exchange can process any blockchain. Therefore, it provides a secure environment to transact in virtually any token given that there is a counterparty willing to take the opposite side of the trade. 

For any questions regarding the use of Tether, P2P marketplace, or other services, please contact the Dukascopy Bank's Support team.

Dukascopy Bank offers clients its own marketplace for P2P exchange of cryptocurrencies

Dukascopy Bank has developed a marketplace for P2P exchange of cryptocurrencies. It is organized as a bulletin board, whereby the clients can place their offers to…

Dukascopy Bank has developed a marketplace for P2P exchange of cryptocurrencies. It is organized as a bulletin board, whereby the clients can place their offers to buy or sell tokens against fiat currencies. Currently, the list of available tokens includes 12 major names with further plans to expand the accessible instruments to altcoins and NFTs.

P2P crypto exchange service can be reached via the Dukascopy Connect app by clicking on the 911 dedicated section. Having an active MCA account is a compulsory prerequisite to use the Marketplace. The role of the Bank in the process of a P2P exchange between two clients is to ensure the security of the fiat settlement. This is achieved by blocking the fiat funds of the Buyer until the Seller successfully delivers the traded cryptocurrency to the Buyer's crypto wallet. The detailed step-by-step description of the service can be found here.

The key distinctive feature proposed by Dukascopy’s P2P solution compared to other existing platforms is the safe execution of the fiat leg of the exchange operation. Other systems within the industry provide escrow to the crypto leg while in fact, it is the fiat leg that is more problematic and riskier to settle, harder to verify and control by an independent investigator. To avoid the settlement risk, the users of Dukascopy P2P service need to strictly follow the rules of the P2P marketplace and not send fiat funds outside of its perimeter. In case of disputes arising between the parties, the Bank will initiate its own investigation of the transaction to secure the safe resolution of the issue.

As part of future developments, the Bank intends to offer API-based connectivity to the P2P marketplace for more sophisticated customers who would like to get more automated order control and advanced trading functionalities.

In the meantime, the Bank encourages its clients to try the new P2P Marketplace. As always, the Bank is grateful for any feedback that may help us improve our services and that can be provided via our Customer Support chat.

Clients of the Bank may find the P2P service inside Dukascopy Connect app under the 911 dedicated section.

DUKASCOIN 3RD ANNIVERSARY: NEW FEATURES AND MORE AFFORDABLE!

28th of February, 2022: Dukascopy Bank SA is pleased to congratulate its current and prospective clients with the third anniversary of the Dukascoin project! Three years…

28th of February, 2022: Dukascopy Bank SA is pleased to congratulate its current and prospective clients with the third anniversary of the Dukascoin project! Three years ago the Dukascopy team released the first payment crypto coin issued for public use by a licensed and regulated Swiss bank. Today we can surely state that the project has succeeded and matured. 

During the past year, Dukascoin holders were offered new features to expand the usability and adoption of our coin. In particular we created a new reward program for loyal Silver Dukascoin holders and a convenient GetCa$h swap program. Also we made our traditional Coin and EUR Reward Staking programs way more affordable than one year ago.

During 2021, small Dukascoin holders were able to allocate free Dukascoin stakes starting with just 50 DUK+! EUR reward stakes became friendlier as well with the entry threshold to staking being affordable at 500 DUK+. Dukascopy had also lowered the entry threshold from 15 000 DUK+ to 10 000 DUK+ allowing clients who previously would not have benefitted from the Fat Catz program to do so. Last year our valuable Fat Catz shared among themselves almost 13 500 EUR in commissions paid for trades performed on the internal Dukascoin marketplace.

We also continued our successful co-operatios with the cryptoexchange ZBX to provide an alternative marketplace for Dukascoin holders who prefer to keep their crypto assets away from the MCA infrastructure. The average price of the Dukascoin stabilized at around 2 EUR per 1 DUK+ during the last six months. This means that the market has found a reasonable balance reflecting the value of the Dukascoin corresponding to the current level of the staking rewards offered by Dukascopy Bank.

We congratulate all our clients and crypto enthusiasts
of the world as we celebrate the next anniversary of the Dukascoin project!

Dukascopy Bank's fiat settlement for P2P crypto-fiat exchange operations

The Dukascopy Bank has developed a new framework for secure settlement of money for the P2P crypto-fiat exchange operations between clients. Dukascopy Bank regularly receives requests from…

The Dukascopy Bank has developed a new framework for secure settlement of money for the P2P crypto-fiat exchange operations between clients.

Dukascopy Bank regularly receives requests from its clients to send or receive money related to P2P crypto-fiat exchange transactions in blockchain. The P2P crypto-fiat exchange is usually based on an individual agreement between two blockchain wallet holders. Crypto currency is transferred between the blockchain wallets and the transfer of money is executed by a regulated banking/payment institution. Each transaction must comply with strict regulatory standards to clearly determine its economic nature and comply with AML protocol.

The Bank’s significant experience in supporting P2P crypto-fiat exchange operations enables it to formalize a new framework facilitating such operations safely. This framework ensures that both sellers and buyers can securely transfer crypto funds between their blockchain wallets and exchange the agreed upon fiat amount between their bank accounts.

The Bank preliminary verifies that the buyer has the agreed upon amount and temporarily blocks these funds before depositing the money into the seller’s MCA account. Simultaneously, clients buying crypto can be sure that their money will be transferred to the seller only if that seller executes a transfer for the corresponding amount of cryptocurrency from their blockchain wallet and at the predetermined time.

This new framework is available for our clients in the Dukascopy Connect 911 application through the “911” public channel. All MCA clients may take part in beta testing in a LIVE environment that will last until December 24, 2021. The access to the framework will be temporarily suspended for the period of Christmas and New Year holidays and is expected to be restored from January 10, 2022 in fully operational regime.

The Bitcoin and Ether are two crypto currencies supported during the P2P framework launch. Other crypto instruments including NFT-tokens will expand the instruments list soon. A detailed description of the framework is available on its dedicated landing page https://www.911p2p.io/.

The Bank strongly believes that clients using this new framework will benefit from a new safe environment for P2P crypto-fiat exchange operations. Other services of the Bank related to crypto currencies can be found on the corresponding landing page: https://www.dukas.io.

Dukascopy Bank SA is pleased to inform that Staking programs with a reward in EUR have become even more affordable with the new lowered threshold of only 500 DUK+. The current reward rates remain intact at 0.1 EUR and 0.5 EUR per Dukascoin for 3-months and 1-year stakes respectively if the stakes are allocated in Blockchain and 0.09 EUR and 0.45 EUR per Dukascoin respectively for stakes allocated within the Bank’s infrastructure (MCA accounts). The difference in reward rates between the options of coins allocation in the Bank or in Blockchain is aimed to cover storage-related expenses of the Bank.

Referrer’s remuneration logic change

Currently, any referrer receives 5 Dukascoins as a bonus for every invited friend who opens an MCA account. Dukascopy Bank is implementing changes to the referrer’s coin distribution. In particular, the referrer will get their 5 coins for introducing a client once the referred client opens an MCA account and meets the 100 USD of incoming deposit turnover limit requirement within 90 days of opening an account. If the 90 days rule is not met, the referrer loses the right to get the 5 Dukascoins.

This measure has been put in place to prevent abuse on accounts which are referred and opened with no actual intent for use. The changes will be implemented during the coming weekend.

Dukascoin 2nd anniversary: same benefits - more freedom!

28th of February, 2021: Dukascopy Bank SA is happy to celebrate the second anniversary of the Dukascoin project - the first payment crypto coin issued for…

28th of February, 2021: Dukascopy Bank SA is happy to celebrate the second anniversary of the Dukascoin project - the first payment crypto coin issued for public use by a licensed and regulated Swiss bank. We are very proud of the progress achieved during this second year of its journey. Today it’s time to look back and observe the way the project evolved during this period.

First of all, we gave Dukascoin holders more freedom to manage their crypto assets. They can now move their Dukascoins to their Ethereum blockchain wallets and still participate in the reward staking programs. Moreover, we offer substantial premiums for reward staking allocated in blockchain. In other good news: we made coin reward staking programs affordable for every client – clients only need 50 DUK+ to be saved to join the coin reward staking program! For those who are looking for more flexibility in managing their cryptoassets, we have introduced a 3-month term for both coin and EUR reward stakes. More details about the current conditions of the coin reward staking program.

The year has also been lucrative for those who confirmed their loyalty to the project by being a member of the exclusive Fat Catz club: more than 16 000 EUR worth of commission paid on the Dukascoin marketplace was distributed amongst club members. 

Last year demonstrated a sustainable growth of interest for the new crypto asset: the Dukascoin reached an all-time high a couple of months ago at 7 EUR per Dukascoin. The average yearly price of the Dukascoin on the internal marketplace reached 4.2 EUR per Dukascoin and currently shows stability and resilience compared to the overall crypto market volatility which has been quoting at 3.5 for a long time.

The local marketplace is not the only place where clients can exchange their Dukascoins. During the past year, Dukascopy Bank established a strategic partnership with the regulated European cryptoexchange ZBX. Now, clients of both entities can keep their fiat secure with a reliable Swiss bank and also make transactions on a regulated exchange with several of the most popular cryptocurrencies including the Dukascoin. Another Asian cryptoexchange – Bitsonic – is close to an agreement and Dukascopy Bank is going to achieve even more recognition not only in Europe but in the Asia-Pacific region.

Finally, an achievement related to niche Dukascoin products: the Silver Dukascoin and the Level 2 referral program called Big Fish. 16 clients already bought Silver Dukascoins of both the SPACE and the SKY series. The first Silver Dukascoin Set has crossed the Atlantic Ocean and has been delivered to a client in Brazil! Half a dozen  clients have caught the Big Fish and have received additional rewards for their referrals who have allocated Dukascoin stakes into reward programs. 

We congratulate all our clients and crypto enthusiasts
of the world as we celebrate the anniversary of the Dukascoin project!

This new measure has been put in place to prevent abuse on accounts which are opened with no intent for actual use.
