Through Makara, Betterment will begin offering crypto investment options to its customers. As an innovative investment advisory platform, Makara will provide data-driven robo-investing services for cryptocurrency investors. 

Sarah Levy, CEO of Betterment, said in a press release:

“Makara is to crypto today what we are to traditional investing, since pioneering robo-investing a decade ago.”

Betterment is arguably the largest independent financial advisory company in the US with more than 700,000 clients. The firm’s entry into crypto follows its triple-digital growth in net deposits in the last year, alongside a successful Series F funding round. 

In other news, the entire crypto market has returned to the $2 trillion territory. The market recovery is due to multiple positive news in the crypto space, including Russia’s decision to recognize crypto as a legitimate form of money. Meanwhile, US officials have finally succeeded in retrieving $3.6 billion of crypto from the Bitfinex hack way back in 2016.
