At N7 Capital, we specialize in #fintech, #blockchain, #digitalassets, #neobanking, and #AI, focusing on data and impacting society.

We also support education, arts, and sports.
Because innovation means nothing without real-world value!

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

I have seen over and over again that it is not just #capital that is lacking.

#Entrepreneurs need real #partners: those who understand both deep #tech and long-term strategy.
That is why I founded N7 Capital - a private #fintech group created to co-create, scale and go global.

The World Economic Forum says that FinTech has entered an era of sustainable growth - only 18% of respondents believe the environment is unfavorable.

In 2020-2021 this rate was 56%.

The industry is developing rapidly - #AI and cross-border #Openbanking are leading the way!

According to @PitchBook, 8 out of 10 deals completed by June 2025 involved at least one US company.

What does this mean? That we see more money in Europe and less in the US.

Thanks to AI Journal for publishing my latest commentary on AI inequality and the role of philanthropy in closing the gap.

Technology should be a bridge, not a barrier!

📊 1/3 of institutional portfolios in 2025 is #Bitcoin 📊
It is no longer an alternative, but a standard!

I shared my thoughts on structural shifts and the future of digital assets on LinkedIn.

The tokenization of real-world assets is no longer theoretical. We’re seeing major institutions like BlackRock and JPMorgan building blockchain infrastructure, not for PR, but for real settlement use. This is about making finance more transparent, liquid, and programmable. It’s not the future, but the now, and it’s only accelerating.

Yes, fintech funding hit a low in 2024. But what I see now is a shift from hype to fundamentals. There's renewed interest in areas that actually solve structural problems, like AI for compliance, cybersecurity for trust, and FaaS for scale. It feels like the industry is sobering up and getting serious, which is a good thing.

Tokenization is happening, quietly but at scale. The most important developments are in pilot projects at top asset managers and regulatory shifts in places like Switzerland and Singapore. The tech has matured. Now, the legal frameworks are catching up. This is financial evolution.

Stablecoins are no longer just a crypto experiment - they’re becoming a system. And now, in the U.S., they’ve got a law behind them.

The Senate just passed the GENIUS bill, the first real federal framework for stablecoins. For the first time, the U.S. officially recognizes the right of private entities to issue dollar-backed stablecoins.

Some of the most meaningful investments I’ve made weren’t in companies - they were in education, modern art, and youth sports. These aren’t side passions. They’re how we grow capability, vision, and grit.

If we want stronger founders and better innovation, we need to support the ecosystems that shape how people think.

Bitcoin on balance: asset or trap?

More companies are buying BTC and adding it to their assets. The trend is ambitious, almost hype. But without a cool head, even bold bets turn into costly mistakes.

Bitcoin is neither a rescue nor a threat itself. It’s all in how you use it.

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

Today, the green agenda transforms into measurable and valuable steps. Glad to share my insights in @PrivateFundsCFO on how PE funds are shifting their sustainable investment mindset.

After years of building and investing, I’ve learned that the best founders don’t just pitch a big market or shiny product. They live the problem. They think in consequences. They’ve shipped more than they’ve said.

When someone can explain their vision in two minutes and show true user obsession- that’s when I lean in.

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

The golden age of fintech apps is behind us. The next decade will be about who builds the strongest infrastructure. Custody, compliance, embedded rails, tokenized assets: this is where real value is shifting. It’s less visible, but far more transformative.

A BlackRock exec says Bitcoin’s upside beats gold’s.

Sure, with fixed supply and growing backing, BTC is no longer just “digital gold” - it’s a new asset class gaining real value. Volatility and regulation remain, but they aren’t major hurdles for its further growth.

[Cointelegraph @Cointelegraph]

⚡️ JUST IN: BlackRock’s Robert Mitchnick claims “Bitcoin has a higher upside than gold and lower downside.”

AI agents are the next layer of embedded finance: not just recommending, but acting on our behalf. Booking, buying, managing - all seamlessly.

So, the next UX shift isn’t visual - it’s invisible.
Delegation is the new interface.

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

I wrote about this shift for European Financial Review. The short version? If you’re building in fintech, you’re now in the business of seamless, invisible UX.

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

We need to stop thinking of “embedded finance” as a buzzword. It’s already shaping the way people experience money - often without realizing it. That’s the point.

[Anton Chashchin @antont71]

And that’s the real transformation: not who offers the service, but where and how. The platforms that own the moment, not just the license, are the ones winning user trust and loyalty.
