After stablecoin push, Stripe acquires crypto wallet developer Privy
The acquisition of Privy follows Stripe’s entry into the stablecoin market in 2024.
Stripe has acquired Privy, a cryptocurrency wallet infrastructure developer, for an undisclosed amount, highlighting the global payment processor’s growing pivot toward digital assets.
Privy confirmed the acquisition on Wednesday in an announcement on social media that it will continue to operate as an independent product embedded within the Stripe ecosystem.
As part of Stripe, Privy will “keep building for developers building on crypto rails [but] now with more resources, flexibility, and firepower,” the company said.
