Santiment invests in EquitiesTracker Holdings to broaden crypto appeal in regulated markets
October 7th, 2025 – Zug, Switzerland
Santiment , a leader in cryptocurrency data analytics based in Switzerland, entered into a strategic investment and partnership with EquitiesTracker Holdings Bhd (“ EquitiesTracker”), a company listed on the Leap Market of Bursa Malaysia stock exchange, with subsidiaries operating licensed fund management activities.
EquitiesTracker becomes the first partner in Santiment’s business expansion focused on delivering verification technologies for institutional-grade digital asset strategies. The partnership supports fund managers in developing directional trading strategies within a fully regulated framework, bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital asset markets.
This initiative is part of Santiment’s roadmap to launch the Santiment Intelligence Network, an ecosystem designed to generate, validate, and monetize high-quality market intelligence. The network introduces immutable and verifiable reputation for analysts, quant engineers, traders, and their codified trading strategies—addressing the industry’s challenge of fragmented and unverified data.
“Our partnership with EquitiesTracker is more than just an investment; it’s laying the cornerstone for an immutable reputation layer for the entire financial world, spanning both Web3 and TradFi”, said Maksim Balashevich, Founder of Santiment.“We see Santiment not just as a data provider, but as an architect of future financial infrastructure,” commented Alvin Vong, Group CEO of EquitiesTracker. “This partnership will enable digital assets to scale within a regulated framework, ensuring stronger safeguards for investor interests while unlocking new opportunities for the industry.”
The partnership combines Santiment’s expertise in Web3 development, on-chain data, sentiment data, and AI-powered solutions with EquitiesTracker’s experience in regulated financial markets. It lays the foundation for a high-integrity ecosystem where verified participants can monetize their strategies, and investors can access investment products backed by proven performance.
