Return follows 2022 exit amid regulatory pressure, marking a structured U.S. re-entry.
Nexo formally re-entered the U.S. market on February 16, 2026, offering digital asset services through regulated partners. The company’s relaunch is structured to comply with U.S. regulations and aims to support both investment and credit products. Trading infrastructure is provided by Bakkt, a publicly listed platform built for institutional risk management and compliance.
Comprehensive U.S. Product Suite Introduced
As part of its U.S. offering, Nexo unveiled a full suite of digital asset services. Flexible and fixed-term yield programs allow clients to earn returns through regulated investment structures.
An integrated exchange provides optimized crypto buying and selling. Crypto-backed credit lines offer liquidity without requiring asset liquidation, supporting multiple collateral types.
Additionally, the platform offers a loyalty program and streamlined fiat and crypto on- and off-ramps via ACH and wire transfers. The U.S. relaunch represents a strategic alignment with clients prioritizing strong governance, risk management, and regulatory compliance, according to the company.
Strategic Recalibration and Global Expansion
Nexo’s renewed U.S. presence follows a period of recalibration after exiting the market in late 2022 due to regulatory challenges. At that time, the firm cited enforcement actions in California and New York and paused operations for its Earn Interest Product.
The company processed $371 billion in global transactions prior to its return and manages $11 billion in assets. Nexo’s global expansion includes acquiring Buenbit in Latin America. It also became Title Partner of the ATP 500 Nexo Dallas Open and digital asset partner of the Audi Revolut F1 Team, the DP World Tour, and the Australian Open.
By partnering with Bakkt, Nexo ensures institutional-grade standards and regulatory alignment for its U.S. clients. The relaunch reflects the company’s commitment to operating in markets with clear rules, institutional standards, and opportunities for responsible digital asset innovation.
