Self-investing
Self-investing at Amdax means you stay in control: you decide what you buy, when, and how you store it. We provide a regulated platform, secure custody, and personal support when you need it.
Buy, sell, store, and stake crypto through one platform. Manage your assets yourself, with access to bespoke strategies, personal support and practical insights from Amdax Research.
Invest through an AFM-regulated provider with a MiCAR licence, robust infrastructure, and clear processes.
Trade, store, and stake crypto through one clear platform, whether you are new to crypto or experienced.
Self-investing doesn't mean you're on your own. Need help? Our team is available via chat, email, or phone.
Self-investing gives you two portfolios: Vault and Earn. Use them side by side and move your crypto assets between them whenever you want.
Vault is your default portfolio. Your crypto assets are held on a 1-to-1 basis in a separate foundation, fully segregated from Amdax's own assets. You have immediate access, and you can trade and stake directly from Vault.
Please note: Investing in crypto assets involves risks. Prices are volatile and you may lose your investment. Trade responsibly and stay informed about the risks.
In Earn, you invest without service fees. We lend your crypto assets to Amdax Yield B.V. within a strict risk framework. The returns cover our operational costs.
Trading and staking are not available in Earn. You can always transfer between Earn and Vault, in full or in part. Withdrawals from Earn may take up to 7 days, depending on market conditions.
Please note: Earn falls outside MiCAR supervision. Within Earn, your crypto assets are lent out. You may lose your principal. Please be aware of the risks.

Vault and Earn are two portfolios within one environment, each designed for a different approach:
Vault is your default portfolio for self-investing. From Vault, you trade crypto assets and can earn additional rewards if you choose staking. Your crypto is always held on a 1-to-1 basis within the foundation and is never lent out. An annual service fee of 0.6% applies to Vault.
Earn is designed for lending your crypto assets to Amdax Yield B.V., a sister company of Amdax. Amdax Yield on-lends these crypto assets to professional counterparties and generates income from this. That income covers operational costs, making Earn free of charge. Trading and staking are not available via Earn.
You can transfer (part of) your crypto assets between Vault and Earn at any time.
Vault carries a service fee of 0.6% per year on the crypto assets held. This is calculated daily and charged monthly. No service fees apply to Earn.
In addition to service fees, transaction costs apply. Please refer to our fee schedule for a full overview of all rates.
Within Earn, you lend your crypto assets to Amdax Yield B.V. Amdax Yield on-lends these assets to carefully selected professional counterparties and receives a fee in return. That fee covers the operational costs of Earn, which is why we do not charge service fees.
No. Trading and staking are only available from Vault. If you want to trade or stake, simply transfer your crypto from Earn to Vault.
When withdrawing crypto assets from Earn, a delay of up to 7 days may occur in certain situations depending on market conditions. For Vault, crypto assets are always immediately accessible. For crypto assets that are being staked, a waiting period may apply when you wish to unstake.
All client assets are held within the custody environment of the Foundation. Within that, a separate environment has been set up for Amdax Yield, which holds its own custody space as a client of Amdax. When you lend your crypto to Amdax Yield, ownership transfers to Amdax Yield. The Foundation then holds the crypto on behalf of Amdax Yield, and no longer on your behalf. In return, you have a contractual right to the redelivery of the same type and amount of crypto.
Earn is an unregulated service offered by Amdax Yield B.V., a sister company of Amdax. Amdax Yield does not hold a MiCAR licence. The protections that apply to your Vault portfolio do not apply to Earn.
The key risks are: your crypto temporarily transfers to Amdax Yield and is no longer covered by the Foundation's protections. If Amdax Yield or any of its counterparties fails to meet its obligations, you risk not recovering some or all of your crypto. Please read our Risk Warning and the Lending Terms carefully before using Earn.
MiCAR regulates crypto asset services such as custody, trading, and asset management. The granting and entering into of crypto asset loans currently falls outside the scope of MiCAR. The Lending Terms therefore apply to Earn, governed by Dutch law.
