Compliance specialists, fintech developers, and financial services professionals committed to building regulated digital asset infrastructure.
Building a cryptocurrency exchange in the US requires more than technical capability. It requires deep familiarity with BSA obligations, FinCEN guidance, state money transmission frameworks, and the evolving federal regulatory landscape. That's the expertise Ethio American LLC brings to Crestmont.

Ethio American LLC was founded with a specific mission: make compliant digital asset services accessible to communities that have historically been underserved by traditional financial institutions. That mission shapes how we hire, how we build, and how we serve our customers.
We take compliance seriously not because regulators require it — though they do — but because our customers deserve a platform they can trust. Every team member understands that the integrity of Crestmont depends on the rigor of our compliance program and the transparency of our operations.
