DeFi protocol, NFT marketplace, or crypto exchange — you still need a US entity. Mercury won't bank you without one. Exchanges won't list you without one. Lovie forms it and handles the EIN while you build.
Decentralize everything except your legal entity.
You're building the future of finance — but you still need a legal entity in the present.
The problem
$2,000+ for a crypto-specialized attorney just to form a basic LLC
Weeks researching which state has the best digital asset legislation
Payment processors and exchanges refusing to work with you without a US entity
No clear guidance on LLC vs. Foundation vs. C-Corp for token projects
Missing compliance deadlines while you're focused on smart contract audits and tokenomics
How Lovie solves it
$29/mo — formation, registered agent, compliance, and mail all included
Wyoming DAO LLC or Delaware entity — Lovie guides you through the options
EIN in hand to open bank accounts, pay contributors, and interface with TradFi
Formation filing fees included — save your capital for audits and development
Compliance deadlines tracked while you track your protocol's TVL
Lovie handles every step — from crypto LLC to ongoing compliance. Zero surprises.
The legal entity your protocol actually needs.
Speaks Crypto, Not Just Corporate
Lovie understands DAO governance, Wyoming's DAO LLC Act, and why your protocol needs a legal wrapper. Most formation services don't know what a multisig is. Lovie does.
No Retainer Games
Crypto law firms want $5K+ retainers before they'll look at your project. Lovie is $29/mo all-in — formation, compliance, registered agent, mail. Predictable costs matter when you're managing pre-launch runway.
Bank-Ready, Custody-Ready
You can't open a Mercury account or set up Fireblocks custody without a US entity and EIN. Lovie gets you both so your treasury operations aren't held up by paperwork.
Start and run your crypto company with Lovie.
From Whitepaper to Legal Entity
Tell Lovie about your crypto project — DeFi protocol, NFT platform, exchange, or Web3 tool. It handles the LLC formation, EIN, registered agent, and compliance. You review and approve. No lawyers. No portals.
One Price, More Runway for Development
$29/mo covers formation, registered agent, mail scanning, and EIN. Crypto attorneys charge $5,000+ for the same advice. Save your treasury for smart contract audits and developer bounties.
Separate Personal Assets from Protocol Risk
Crypto is volatile and the regulatory picture keeps shifting. A proper LLC separates your personal assets from your project's liabilities. If regulators come knocking or a hack occurs, your personal finances stay protected.
Start LLC, Convert to C-Corp for Funding
Start as a Wyoming LLC for operational flexibility. When you're ready to raise a seed round from crypto VCs, Lovie converts you to a Delaware C-Corp — included in your plan at no extra cost.
US Entity for Global Web3 Teams
Building a protocol with contributors across 20 countries? Lovie helps international Web3 founders form Delaware and Wyoming LLCs remotely. No US address or visit required. Works well for DAO legal wrappers too.
Available on Crypto Time
Crypto markets don't keep business hours, and neither does Lovie. Unlike lawyers who bill by the hour during EST working hours, Lovie is available any time. Manage your company during a midnight governance vote if you need to.
Questions about starting your crypto company.
Why does a decentralized project need a legal entity?
Even decentralized protocols need a legal entity for practical reasons — opening bank accounts, signing contracts with service providers, paying contributors, interfacing with exchanges, and giving core team members some liability protection. A Wyoming LLC is a common choice for DAO legal wrappers.
What does the $29/mo include for crypto companies?
Everything. LLC or C-Corp formation filing fees, registered agent service, digital mail scanning, EIN registration, and a filing guarantee. One price. No add-ons. Whether you're a solo developer or a team building the next major protocol.
Should my crypto project be a Wyoming LLC or a Delaware C-Corp?
Wyoming has the most forward-looking digital asset legislation and recognizes DAO LLCs. Delaware is the standard for VC-backed startups. If you plan to raise traditional venture capital, you'll likely want a Delaware C-Corp. For operational flexibility and DAO structures, Wyoming LLC is often the better fit. Lovie walks you through both options.
Can Lovie form a DAO LLC?
Lovie can form a Wyoming LLC, which is the entity type used as a legal wrapper for DAOs under Wyoming's DAO LLC legislation. The DAO governance structure itself lives in smart contracts — the LLC provides the legal recognition.
Do I need a US entity if my team is entirely overseas?
If you want to access US banking, exchanges, or service providers — yes. A US entity also adds credibility with partners, investors, and regulators. Lovie forms your entity remotely. No US address or visit required.
What about crypto-specific regulations and licensing?
Lovie handles your business entity formation, EIN, and state compliance. Crypto-specific requirements like money transmitter licenses, BitLicense, and SEC registration are separate regulatory processes — but having your entity and EIN in place is the prerequisite for all of them.
Can I open a bank account for my crypto company?
Once you have your LLC and EIN, you can apply for a business bank account. Some crypto-friendly banks like Mercury and Relay make this easier. A properly formed entity is the first step to accessing traditional banking.
What if regulators classify my token as a security?
Having a properly structured legal entity is foundational regardless of regulatory outcomes. An LLC provides liability separation for founders. For specific securities law advice, consult a crypto-specialized attorney — Lovie handles entity formation, not legal counsel.
