View ChartInkryptus (INKY) is the native token of a custodial financial platform built on the BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20). The platform integrates a multi-asset wallet, staking, token swaps, payments, blockchain games and a partner programme into a single mobile application for iOS and Android. Inkryptus describes itself as a "hybrid finance platform" and "the uncomplicated Staking house," combining the simplicity of an ordinary app with the transparency of public, on-chain smart contracts. The platform manages private keys on behalf of users, removing the need for seed phrases or external dApp connections, while every operation remains auditable on BscScan. The INKY token launched on May 11, 2023, and carries a hard cap of 200,000,000 tokens, with an initial mint of 10,000,000 INKY for ecosystem development and staking pools. The project was founded in 2020 and has since expanded into a global platform serving users across more than 90 countries.
Inkryptus was founded by Pierre Perreira and Lucas Marcelino, two entrepreneurs with over a decade of experience in the cryptocurrency market. Pierre Perreira serves as Co-founder and CEO; he has been an entrepreneur and investor in blockchain since 2010, building crypto products since 2016, and began his crypto journey in 2015 buying and selling Bitcoin peer-to-peer. Lucas Marcelino serves as Co-founder and CTO; he is a software engineer with more than 14 years of experience, working with blockchain since 2015. In 2016, the two launched AllCoinWallet, one of the first cryptocurrency exchanges in Brazil. Before Inkryptus, they worked with exchanges, P2P operations and investment automation platforms. The company was founded in 2020 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and now runs operations primarily out of East Africa, with offices in Kenya and Tanzania and a strategic headquarters in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Inkryptus operates as a custodial platform on the BNB Smart Chain. When a user creates an account, they receive their own on-chain address, and the wallet behind it is a contract operated by Inkryptus. This simplified custody model means users do not need to manage seed phrases or connect to external decentralized applications. All transactions are recorded on public smart contracts and can be verified by anyone through BscScan. The platform's architecture supports staking, token swaps, payments and gaming within the same application. Staking rewards are generated through on-chain staking contracts, with new tokens minted at a rate of 1% of staked tokens per day, capped at 10,000 INKY per day. The platform applies a 25% performance fee exclusively on profit generated, not on the principal invested. Security features include two-factor authentication and publicly verifiable smart contracts built to OpenZeppelin standards.
Inkryptus addresses a specific gap in the market: DeFi offers on-chain staking, public smart contracts and transparent transactions, but reaching these features typically requires wallets, seed phrases, protocol connections and technical knowledge that most people do not have. Traditional platforms solve the access problem but keep operations behind closed doors. Inkryptus combines both approaches by providing the simplicity of an ordinary mobile app with the transparency of DeFi infrastructure underneath. Every contract is public on BNB Smart Chain and readable on BscScan without needing to ask the platform. The wallet is designed so users cannot lock themselves out, as every account has its own on-chain address managed through a contract operated by Inkryptus. The project's stated values are security, transparency, responsibility and education, with a mission to make crypto market access simple, secure and transparent for first-time buyers and experienced investors alike. The platform targets markets where a smartphone is often the only financial infrastructure someone has.
INKY serves as the central token of the Inkryptus economy. It is used within the platform's staking programme, which launched in 2023 alongside the creation of the INKY/USDT liquidity pool. The token is integrated natively into the Inkryptus app, allowing users to hold, stake and swap it alongside other digital assets. INKY can be purchased through the Inkryptus app or via decentralized exchanges such as PancakeSwap and 1inch using the official contract address, and it is compatible with any BEP-20 wallet. The token also functions within the platform's ecosystem of features, including the multi-asset wallet, token swaps, payment contracts and blockchain games such as Coin Flip. The Arena, launched in 2026, includes its own staking pool. The token's utility is tied directly to the platform's staking architecture, which generates rewards through on-chain activity rather than external yield sources.
The Inkryptus ecosystem has expanded steadily since the platform launched in 2020. The staking architecture was established in 2020, followed by the app launch and first staking contract in 2021, when it was downloaded in more than 15 countries. In 2022, Coin Flip launched as the first on-chain game in the app. The INKY token was created in 2023 alongside the INKY/USDT liquidity pool and the INKY staking programme. In 2024, swap and payment contracts were deployed, INKY was integrated natively into the app, and the token reached its all-time high of $1.98 on October 17, 2024. In 2025, Inkryptus made its first international appearance at CryptoExpo Dubai, launched AI-powered support, reached over 10,000 users across more than 90 countries, and opened offices in Kenya and Tanzania. In 2026, the app was fully redesigned, KYC was introduced for compliance, Buy USDT with local currency and nine new assets were added, and The Arena launched with its own staking pool. The platform also powers the Africa Blockchain Festival 2026 in Nairobi from October 15 to 17.
INKY is not mined through traditional proof-of-work mechanisms. Instead, new tokens enter circulation through staking activity on the BNB Smart Chain. The minting mechanism operates at a rate of 1% of staked tokens per day, with a hard cap of 10,000 INKY minted per day. This means users who stake their tokens can earn daily rewards generated by the staking contracts. The platform applies a 25% performance fee only on the profit generated; for example, if an investment of 100 INKY generates 1 INKY in profit, the fee is 0.25 INKY, applied solely to the profit. The staking architecture has been in place since 2020, with the first staking contract deployed in 2021 and the INKY staking programme launched in 2023. The Arena, introduced in 2026, added a dedicated staking pool to the ecosystem. Staking is accessible directly through the Inkryptus mobile app without requiring external wallet connections or technical setup.
Inkryptus employs a simplified custody model in which the platform manages private keys on behalf of users, eliminating the need for seed phrases that can be lost or stolen. Every account receives its own on-chain address backed by a contract operated by Inkryptus. Security features include two-factor authentication and smart contracts built to OpenZeppelin standards, all of which are publicly verifiable on BscScan. Because all transactions are recorded on-chain, users can independently audit platform activity at any time. For general safety, users should enable two-factor authentication, keep their app updated to the latest version, avoid sharing account credentials, and verify contract addresses through official Inkryptus documentation before interacting with any external service. The platform introduced KYC in 2026 as part of its compliance framework. As with any digital asset, users should understand the risks associated with market volatility and custodial arrangements before investing.
