Anycoin

Marek Kyrsch partnered with Martin Čech after Čech returned to Czechia from the United States, where he had worked at Facebook. They explored projects including crypto-market making. Anycoin began in late 2018 and gained its first paying customer in early 2019.⁠[1]

The founders committed full-time to Anycoin in autumn 2020 and expanded the initial two-person team. Early operations relied on contract-software income and personal investment. The later company history described Anycoin as financially self-sufficient from 2021.⁠[2][1]

A June 2022 founder interview described Anycoin’s mobile app and Lightning Network payment capabilities. Kyrsch emphasized simplifying everyday bitcoin use. The business then primarily served Czechia and Slovakia and discussed payment applications for companies.⁠[2]

In a July 2024 interview, Kyrsch described DASE, the exchange he developed with Martin Čech, as launching at BTC Prague after more than three years of work. DASE, Anycoin and Lightning wallet Bitlifi formed part of their 21M Group business network; MP Developers remained Anycoin’s direct operator.⁠[1][3]

Operating figures disclosed in February 2026 reported 2025 turnover of CZK 6.25 billion, up 6.3% from CZK 5.88 billion in 2024, and 133,122 customers. Bitcoin accounted for 61.9% of trading volume. These company-reported figures should not be read as profit or assets under custody.⁠[4]

Anycoin disclosed MiCA authorisation on February 11, 2026 as one of the first six providers approved by the Czech National Bank. The regulator confirmed six decisions that day, with registration following final legal effect. The authorisation concerns crypto-asset services; it does not make Anycoin a commercial bank.⁠[5][6]

A July 9 listing by France’s Autorité des marchés financiers identifies Anycoin’s entity as MP Developers s.r.o., supervised by the Czech National Bank. Listed services include custody, a trading platform, exchange, order execution and transfers. The page’s July 1 date refers to intended service commencement in France, not the original Czech authorisation date.⁠[7]

Partners Banka’s bitcoin feature launched on August 10, allowing purchases from CZK 500 within its banking app. The bank receives and transmits orders while Anycoin executes them and provides custody. The integration removes the need for a separate trading app or customer-managed recovery phrase.⁠[8][9]

Anycoin is operated by MP Developers s.r.o. and offers crypto-asset exchange, storage and transfers to individuals and businesses through web and mobile interfaces. Its site also provides recurring-purchase and staking products, whose conditions and risks depend on the service. It is distinct from the Dutch brand Anycoin Direct.⁠[10][3][7]
