The Linz-based startup Blockpit GmbH, specializing in control software for crypto investors, has concluded a Series A investment round in the amount of USD 10 million. The capital raised will be used primarily to further accelerate the company’s Europe-wide growth. Blockpit’s medium-term target is to operate in all European markets.
