AlphaPoint bets on the rise of institutional crypto super apps

The crypto industry has no shortage of moonshot ideas, but few infrastructure firms have weathered the cycles like AlphaPoint. Founded in 2013, the company has quietly powered the launch of nearly 200 exchanges and wallets worldwide. But CEO Igor Telyatnikov says the firm's next chapter won't be driven by early adopters—it'll be defined by institutions.
'We're past the phase of helping people buy their first Bitcoin,' Telyatnikov told TheStreet Roundtable. 'The next billion users are coming through platforms they already trust—banks, brokerages, government wallets. We're focused on building the tools those institutions need to serve them.'
One of those tools is Chivo, El Salvador's national crypto wallet, which AlphaPoint helped upgrade. The app now reaches millions of citizens, many of whom had never accessed financial services before. Another is Bancolombia's crypto exchange and debit card, launched with AlphaPoint's tech. In Canada, Ndax crypto exchange and a sponsor of the NHL playoffs.
Telyatnikov believes the future of crypto adoption lies in 'super apps'—platforms that seamlessly blend trading, lending, borrowing, payments, and merchant tools. It's already happening. In Thailand, SCB's InnovestX added crypto to its stock trading app using AlphaPoint infrastructure. In Canada, Robinhood's acquisition of WonderFi hints at the convergence of TradFi and crypto.
'Institutions know there's real revenue in this,' Telyatnikov said. 'Crypto is no longer a sandbox. It's infrastructure.'
