Maika Isogawa, CEO and Founder of Webacy stated:

Webacy is a part of a movement to help bring consumers and businesses that own digital assets power to protect themselves using decentralized tools.

Webacy is a technology layer, not a competitor to crypto wallets like MetaMask. The concept enables users to access their existing self-custodial wallets without requiring keys, seed phrases, or passwords and provides security precautions to prevent assets from being lost or stolen.

Webacy aims to be the leader in providing assets security:

We are excited to build Webacy as the strongest brand to help secure your digital legacy; the assets that you’ve accumulated and will hold for your lifetime as a representation of your wealth and of your activity and lifestyle.

Other partners of the company include Soma Capital, Quantstamp, CEAS Investments, Dreamers, Miraise, DG Daiwa Ventures, to name a few. Previous investors, our even earlier supporters, include Pareto Holdings, Quiet Capital, LOI Venture, MetaverseHQ, and Origin Protocol.
