ChangeNOW, a non-custodial crypto management platform, has been named “Best Digital Assets Fintech” at the BeInCrypto x Proof of Talk Institutional 100 Awards 2026, held live at the Louvre Palace in Paris. The awards span 24 categories across six pillars — Regulation & Governance, Capital Markets & Infrastructure, Retail to Crypto Bridge, Digital Assets, Tokenization & On-Chain Finance, and Enterprise Blockchain. Winners are determined through a two-stage process: proprietary quantitative screening using on-chain data and company disclosures, followed by blind scoring from an independent Expert Council of leaders in traditional finance and digital assets.
Award Detail: Shared Nomination with Revolut in Retail to Crypto Bridge
ChangeNOW was nominated in the Retail to Crypto Bridge category alongside European neobank Revolut. This category recognizes platforms delivering exceptional service at the intersection of traditional finance and the crypto economy. BeInCrypto reaches 7–11 million monthly readers across 26 languages and a B2B community of over 20,000 verified professionals — 70% at C-level — giving the award significant weight in the digital finance industry.
Founded in 2017, ChangeNOW originally launched as a non-custodial cryptocurrency exchange and has since evolved into a full-stack infrastructure provider serving both retail and business clients. The platform supports over 1,500 digital assets, serves 8 million users globally, and has processed millions of transactions.
B2B Product Suite: From Swaps to Payments and Custody
Beyond its web platform, iOS/Android apps, and self-custody wallet NOW Wallet, ChangeNOW offers a range of B2B solutions: NOWPayments for crypto payment processing, NOWNodes for blockchain node access, NOW Custody for institutional-grade asset storage, and a business API that allows wallets, fintech platforms, and financial services to embed swap functionality directly.
“This recognition means a lot to our team because it reflects the trust our clients place in us every day. From the beginning, our goal has been to make crypto simple, accessible, and reliable for everyone, regardless of their experience level,” said Elena Dali Bey, Senior Business Development Manager at ChangeNOW.
Roadmap: RWA Listings, Fast-Track Program, and Product Upgrades
Rather than rest on the laurels, ChangeNOW is accelerating its service expansion. Key initiatives in the coming months include:
- Expanding asset listings with a strategic focus on Real-World Assets (RWA) tokens, new networks, and tokens that are difficult to access through traditional centralized channels, aiming to provide deep liquidity for tokenized physical assets.
- Fast-Track Program offering wallets pre-built infrastructure and marketing support — including targeted crypto media placement, partner posts on ChangeNOW’s social channels, and participation in Tier-1 conferences with over 15,000 attendees — to help wallets monetize from day one.
- Product improvements such as advanced trading tools, personalization features, and interface redesigns, reducing the gap between user goals and platform simplicity — less guesswork for newcomers, fewer steps for seasoned traders.
ChangeNOW views this award as a benchmark rather than a destination, reaffirming its commitment to transparency, accessibility, and continuous improvement.
