Michael Shaulov, CEO and co-founder of Fireblocks, introduces the company as a leading infrastructure platform for digital assets, offering secure custody, wallets, settlement, and tokenization solutions for enterprises. Fireblocks was founded in 2018 after Shalob and his team investigated a $200M North Korean hack in South Korea, which revealed both the transformative potential of crypto and its security gaps. By solving critical challenges around security and scalability, Fireblocks enabled institutions to transact, transfer, and tokenize assets at the speed of the internet—delivering an enterprise-grade, secure, and scalable solution that previously didn’t exist.
