Our verdict
SwissBorg is a Lausanne-headquartered crypto app founded in 2017. Its Smart Engine routes orders across multiple exchanges, charging a 0.99% exchange fee for standard users, lower in premium tiers. Its EU entity holds a MiCA authorisation from France's AMF, and it publishes monthly proof-of-liabilities audits. A 2025 staking-partner breach hit its SOL Earn product.
Pros
- Monthly proof-of-liabilities audits users can verify
- Smart Engine routes orders across several exchanges
- MiCA authorisation from France's AMF (March 2026)
Cons
- 0.99% standard fee plus an unpublished spread
- 2025 Kiln breach caused losses in SOL Earn
