The company enables users to convert fiat currencies to digital currencies (and vice versa).
Banxa’s common shares commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange back in January under the TSX ticker. The listing initially resulted in a massive 90% rally, but the stock is now down more than 70% due to the crypto market drawdown.
In May, Banxa reported a 99% year-over-year revenue increase. The company set up new entities in the U.S. and Turkey.
