History

The company was founded in 2014 by Eric Demuth, Paul Klanschek, and Christian Trummer.[5] The company was first called Coinimal and changed its name to Bitpanda in 2016. In 2018, an office was opened in London. Initially, Bitpanda was a platform on which only cryptocurrencies were traded. In 2019, it also launched trading in precious metals and in April 2021, it launched trading in securities.[6]

In September 2020, the company raised $52 million in an initial funding round.

In another round of funding in August 2021, the company raised $260 million, increasing its valuation to more than $4 billion.[9] In 2021, the company announced it would open an office in Berlin.[2]
