What Lukka does
Lukka is a New York-headquartered, privately held enterprise software company founded in 2014 that provides institutional-grade data management, valuation, and compliance software for crypto and digital assets. The company serves five primary customer segments: funds and fund administrators, traditional financial institutions (State Street, BNY Mellon, Franklin Templeton), crypto-native businesses (Coinbase, Circle/USDC, eToro, Bitso, ShapeShift), CPA and accounting firms, and government agencies. Lukka operates from offices in New York, Zug (Switzerland, European headquarters since October 2022), London, Singapore, Poland, and Naples, FL, and employs 251–500 people.
Lukka's technology stack aggregates data from more than 100 blockchains, 2,500+ trading venues, 300+ exchange APIs, and 90 billion+ trading ticks, with standardized classification through LDACS (Lukka Digital Asset Classifications Standards) covering 320,000+ crypto spot assets, 400,000+ derivatives, and 48,000+ trading pairs. The product portfolio centers on a modular Lukka Enterprise SaaS platform (Enterprise Data Management, Tax/Business Reporting, Core-banking Augmentation, Custom Implementations) augmented by three product lines: Reference Data (LDACS, Asset Mapping, Crypto Asset Score, Trading Venue Score), Pricing & Market Data (Lukka Prime Fair Market Value pricing on Bloomberg Terminal under wire code LUKK, Digital Asset Reference Rates, VWAPs), and Quantitative Risk & Analytics (Implied Volatility Surfaces, Implied Interest Rates). Blockchain Analytics & Compliance SaaS — strengthened by the May 2024 Coinfirm acquisition — adds wallet screening, AML/KYC, and transaction tracing, while the June 2026 PEER DATA acquisition contributed patented Daisy Chain technology for data provenance across digital assets and enterprise AI.
Lukka monetizes through quote-based enterprise SaaS subscriptions, reference data licensing, and pricing/market data distribution, complemented by a freemium LukkaTax for Professionals product distributed via CPA.com. The company has raised approximately $201M in disclosed funding through Series D (led by Marshall Wace in January 2022, with Soros Fund Management and S&P Global participating) and received a strategic investment from Animoca Capital in 2024. Lukka has executed four acquisitions (Blox Finance in 2021, Venato in 2023, Coinfirm in 2024, PEER DATA in 2026) and pursues multiple distribution channels including direct enterprise sales, Bloomberg, S&P Dow Jones Indices, Talos, CPA.com, and Formula E brand sponsorship.
