About us

Minke's mission is to empower you to own better money.

The most intuitive self-custody experience.

In many countries around the world crypto is used for more than simply speculation. It's used as a store of wealth and increasingly as a means of payment. However most people still use crypto today in centralized exchanges or platforms that have a history of stealing or losing your money. At Minke we build an intuitive wallet that replaces your exchange or fintech, so you can self-custody all your assets and live your entire life in crypto.

Our team

Minke is a company started by an Australian and a Brazilian, but we're now a global team based mostly in Brazil and Portugal. We work together to build the most intuitive way to access the world of decentralized finance.
