Cryptocurrency payment company MoonPay has acquired stablecoin company Iron
On March 13, according to CNBC, crypto payment giant MoonPay is increasing its efforts to enter the corporate market by acquiring Iron, an API-preferred stablecoin infrastructure startup. This is MoonPay's second major acquisition in two months, underscoring its ambition to capture the rapidly growing stablecoin payments market. Ivan Soto-Wright, co-founder and CEO of MoonPay, said in an interview: "We believe that everyone will have a digital currency wallet, whether it's in a bank account or standing alone. And we built backward compatibility with the existing financial system." Soto-Wright likened the acquisition to PayPal's acquisition of Braintree, which processes credit card transactions for companies such as Meta, with total payments of nearly $600 billion last year. Soto-Wright said: "This is our Braintree moment, and Iron's technology puts MoonPay on track to become the authoritative infrastructure provider for corporate stablecoin solutions."
