Why Crypto Verification Will Exist Even If Accredifi Didn't
Self-custody broke the old trust model. Institutions still need to rely on claims about crypto wealth. That gap creates a vacuum, and vacuums don't stay empty.

Trusted by institutions worldwide
Prove your crypto holdingswithout giving up custody.
Institutions need proof of funds. You won't move assets or share keys. Accredifi bridges this gap with cryptographic proof both sides can verify.
Replace screenshots with verifiable, tamper-proof snapshots. No custody. No transfers. Just proof.
The problem we solve
Screenshots don't work. Custody isn't an option.
Institutions need proof of funds. Crypto holders won't give up custody. The result? Screenshots that can't be trusted, or forced transfers to custodians that users reject. Accredifi bridges this gap with cryptographic proof that both sides can verify - without custody, and without trust.
- Cryptographic proof, not screenshots
- Institutions get verifiable, tamper-proof snapshots signed by the wallet owner. No Photoshop, no fraud risk.
- Zero custody, full verification
- Users keep their keys. Institutions get proof. Both sides win without compromise.
- Time-limited, user-controlled access
- Set expiry dates. Revoke access instantly. See who has access. Full transparency and control.
Verification
Cryptographically Secure
How it works
Four steps. No custody. Full control.
STEP 01
Connect your wallet
Connect MetaMask, Trezor, BitBox, or other supported wallets. We request view-only access—no transfers, no approvals, no private keys.
STEP 02
Sign to prove ownership
Sign a cryptographic message with your wallet. This proves you control the private key without revealing it. Takes seconds.
STEP 03
Balance snapshot captured
We capture your current balances (BTC, ETH, and tokens) and create a tamper-proof snapshot. Your assets never leave your wallet.
STEP 04
Grant time-limited access
Share the snapshot with institutions via link or API. Set expiry dates. Revoke access anytime. They get proof; you keep custody.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
No. Never. We never request transfers, approvals, or access to your private keys. We only request a cryptographic signature to prove ownership, and we capture balance snapshots via view-only access. Your assets stay in your wallet at all times.
Screenshots can be faked. Our cryptographic signatures prove you control the private key without revealing it. Institutions can verify the proof on-chain, making it tamper-proof and trustworthy.
Only the institutions you explicitly grant access to. You set expiry dates, and you can revoke access at any time. We don't share your data with anyone else, and you can see exactly who has access in your dashboard.
The institution immediately loses access to your wallet data. They're notified via webhook, and any cached data becomes invalid. You maintain full control over who sees what, and when.
Institutions receive a cryptographically signed snapshot that they can verify on-chain. The signature proves you control the wallet, and the snapshot shows balances at a specific point in time. It's tamper-proof and auditable.
We support Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) via MetaMask, Trezor, and BitBox. More chains and wallets are coming soon.
Yes. Our REST API lets institutions create access requests, receive webhooks for approvals and revocations, and retrieve wallet data programmatically. Full documentation is available for registered institutions.

DAC8: What the EU's New Crypto Reporting Rules Actually Mean
DAC8 is now live across the European Union. It doesn't outlaw self-custody or force disclosure of private keys, but it does reshape how crypto wealth must be reported, verified, and contextualised when it touches regulated entities.

What Happens When a Lender Accepts a Screenshot - and It’s Wrong?
Screenshots are still widely used to prove crypto holdings, but they fail silently and dangerously. Here’s what happens when lenders rely on visual proof that can’t be verified, audited, or defended later.
