We’re here. For good.

Gemini is a full-reserve and highly-regulated cryptocurrency exchange and custodian.

Based in NYC since 2014.

Available in all 50 states

Our founders, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, were early investors in cryptocurrency and struggled to find a platform where they could securely manage their growing portfolio.

Out of that frustration and lack of trust, they built Gemini to deliver the first trusted platform that focused on strong security controls and compliance.

Our mantra

Asking permission, 
not forgiveness.

We are a New York trust company regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYSDFS). This means we are subject to requirements including capital reserves, cybersecurity, and high banking compliance standards.

We Are

Certified.
Regulated.

Licensed.

From day one, Gemini has prioritized the security of your assets. We never have and never will compromise on that.
