About This List
The BeInCrypto Institutional 100: Fiat-to-Crypto Access (2026 Long List) identifies the firms building regulated infrastructure for moving money between traditional payment systems and digital assets.
The category includes consumer-facing onramps, B2B settlement infrastructure, regional payment specialists, aggregators, and banking-grade APIs integrated into wallets, exchanges, fintech apps, and dApps.
Stablecoin orchestration platforms without a direct fiat onramp or offramp surface are evaluated separately under stablecoin infrastructure categories.
Methodology
This category is evaluated under Track B of the BeInCrypto Institutional 100 methodology: 30% quantitative metrics, 50% Expert Council scoring, and 20% disclosed data.
Assessment spans seven criteria: country coverage, payment method diversity, regulatory compliance, UX integration, settlement speed, wallet and dApp ecosystem integration, and innovation.
Data was verified using regulatory registers, audited filings, company disclosures, partnership announcements, and private-market sources, including PitchBook, Tracxn, and Crunchbase.
