Commenting on the investment, Ami Ben-David, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at SPiCE VC, said: “When we started SPiCE, security tokens were in their early stages.

Archax fits the bill perfectly and will round out our portfolio by providing a credible institutional venue for all the security token initiatives we are involved with, as well as others, to be traded in.”
