About The Company

MoonPay launched in 2019 with a simple aim: increase cryptocurrency adoption. With a team of just two young entrepreneurs — co-founders Ivan Soto-Wright and Victor Faramond — the company set out to create a simple and secure software solution that would enable people from all over the world to participate in the biggest digital revolution since the internet.

In November 2021, just two and a half years later, we closed our Series A funding round at $555 million, bringing our valuation to $3.4 billion — the largest and highest valued Series A for any bootstrapped crypto company. As we continue to grow at a tremendous pace, we’re using this funding to invest in global expansion and world-class talent.
