France crypto companies: 29 on NAUT, 9 on the investor side

By NAUT Research · · 7 min read

29 France crypto companies companies and investor-side firms NAUT tags to France, read on 5 November 2026. Logos: Ledger, Flowdesk, Kiln, Spiko, Capital B, Bitstack, Waltio, Fipto, Schuman Financial, hyli_org, Alven, Synaps.

NAUT tracks 29 France crypto companies, read on 5 November 2026: 20 rows on its project side and 9 firms on its investor side, spread across 10 sector groups from payments and stablecoins to DePIN. They come from 35 rows NAUT tags to France, after 6 rows were removed because they are not companies of this kind.

How this list was built: on 5 November 2026 NAUT read all 35 company and investor rows tagged to France, then kept a row only when it is an organisation doing crypto work or investing in it. 6 rows came out, each for a reason of its own: 5 rows carry a person's name rather than a company name (Alexis Berthoud, Amir Carlisle, Elias Tazartes, Owen Simonin and Sebastian Borget, all filed on NAUT's investor side, and 4 of the 5 store no description at all while the 5th stores a biography of a person); 1 row is Ubisoft Entertainment SA, a video game publisher whose stored summary names no crypto product or investment mandate. That leaves 29. Anyone listed can ask NAUT to remove their page at https://naut.so/legal/data-deletion.

18 of the 29 carry a description on their NAUT record, and 11 carry none, so for those 11 the page's team, X account and contact channels are what you work from. 11 of the 29 rows had 1 claim each put through an outside source check on 5 November 2026 (Flowdesk had 2), and the 18 remaining rows were not put through that check. Written from NAUT's own database rows, with the source checks named below.

Which crypto companies are based in France, and what does each one do?

NAUT files 20 of the 29 on its project side, across 9 product groups: 19 are operating companies and 1 is a token row. Each name links to its NAUT page, which carries the team, the X account and the channels NAUT holds.

Payments and stablecoins, 4 companies. Schuman Financial is a stablecoin issuer on NAUT's record, and its own site describes EURØP as "an e-money token pegged 1:1 to the euro fully backed by reserves". Fipto is stored as a B2B payments and treasury management solution, Lyzi as a blockchain payment solution, and Ozapay carries no description, only its domain and X account.

Infrastructure and market making, 4 companies. Flowdesk carries the longest description of the 4: market making, OTC trading and analytics, and a SoftwareSuggest listing NAUT read says it offers "competitive prices across 140+ exchanges and 400+ assets". hyli_org is NAUT's row for Hyli, stored as a proof-powered L1, and a public testnet repo on GitHub uses the same words: "The new proof-powered L1 to build the next generation of apps." Keyban is a digital certified loyalty platform and Beatcoin a value settlement infrastructure layer.

Tools and compliance, 4 companies. Waltio is a cryptocurrency tax platform and Podium builds tools for NFT fantasy sports platforms. AntDropp and AntureIO are tagged into this group by NAUT's sector data and carry no stored description, so their X accounts are the starting point.

RWA and money markets, 2 companies. Spiko is stored as mutual funds and capital markets on-chain. Fraktion is stored as an RWA end-to-end solution, and a funding press release for the company describes it as "An end-to-end solution dedicated to tokenization and fractionalization of real-world assets (RWAs)".

DePIN, 2 companies. PlanetWatch runs a global decentralized air quality monitoring network and Exorde sells real-time social metrics on news, crypto, brands, politics and finance.

Consumer and neobank, 1 company. Bitstack is a bitcoin savings account app, and its own site offers to "invest your spare change set recurring purchases or buy bitcoin instantly".

Digital asset treasury, 1 company. Capital B's stored line reads: European Bitcoin Finance Company (PA: ALCPB). NAUT's outside check could not match that ticker to wording on a page it read, so this article reports the stored line and nothing further.

DeFi and custody, 1 company. Kiln is stored as an enterprise-grade staking technology provider, and its Ethereum page says "Stake ETH with Kiln, enterprise-grade staking".

Memecoin, 1 row. Pepe is the one row here, and it is a token rather than a company: NAUT's stored line reads, the most memeable memecoin in existence on Ethereum, and the row carries the domain pepe.vip and the X account @pepecoineth and no stored product or mandate beyond that line.

The other 9 rows sit on NAUT's investor side at /investors/, the side NAUT uses for firms it records as investors: Alven, 50 Partners, Atka, Blockpulse, Perspective, White Loop Capital, Proof of talk, Ledger and Synaps. 8 of the 9 carry no stored description, so the portfolio and team on each page are what tell you what the firm does. The official X account on Ledger's row is @Ledger, confirmed on 5 November 2026 through an X search and through the company's own support page.

France crypto companies by sector group

Ranked by how many rows each group holds. Payments, infrastructure and tools are level at 4 rows each, and 4 groups hold a single row, so a seller with 1 product line has at most 4 French accounts in any one group and should work 2 or 3 groups at once.

Which France crypto companies had a claim source-checked?

11 of the 29 rows had a claim checked against a source outside NAUT on 5 November 2026, 12 claims in all. 6 claims matched the wording the page carries and are quoted above. 1 more, Ledger's X account, was confirmed through an X search and a second page. 4 claims came back confirmed without NAUT's fetch matching any wording on the page, so they are left out of this article: Capital B's ticker, and the descriptions stored for Spiko, Waltio and Fipto, which are reported above only as what NAUT's own record says. 1 claim came back contradicted: NAUT's Flowdesk description lists an office in Stamford, and the company listing NAUT read names Paris, New York and Singapore with no Stamford, so the office list is left out and only the Paris headquarters is reported.

What this tells a BD team selling into France crypto companies

  • The French list is small enough to work by hand. 20 rows on the project side, 19 of them operating companies, and the biggest single product group holds 4.
  • Payments is where the buyers cluster: Schuman Financial, Fipto, Lyzi and Ozapay all sit in payments and stablecoins, so 1 pitch covers 4 accounts.
  • 11 of the 29 rows carry no stored description. Their NAUT page still carries the X account and the team, which is what an opener needs.
  • The 9 investor-side rows are a second route in. A fund's NAUT page lists its portfolio, and a portfolio company is a warmer first call than the fund.
