Lukka, a provider of cryptocurrency data, has closed a $53 million Series D round. Participants include Soros Fund Management, founded by George Soros, S&P Global, and CPA.com.
According to The Block, the company’s valuation reached $200 million.
In a statement to the publication, the company’s chief executive, Robert Materazzi, said that the funds would be used to develop existing products. They cover pricing data and tax accounting tools. Lukka works with 160 crypto funds.
Materazzi expects further scaling of the business if the US Securities and Exchange Commission approves Bitcoin ETF.
We can become partners of the administrators of these funds, he said.
Earlier in December 2020, Lukka closed a Series C funding round of $15 million, led by S&P Global and State Street Corp.
S&P Dow Jones Indices, a unit of S&P Global, announced the launch of cryptocurrency indices this year. They will be based on Lukka’s data.
