A note from our CEO

The industry needs our support now more than ever.

By Ivan Soto-Wright

Today I shared the following message with the MoonPay team: 

Team,

This morning, we made a donation on behalf of everyone here at MoonPay to Stand With Crypto, a leading nonprofit committed to uniting global crypto advocates.

In 2023, our industry was tested like no other. Against that backdrop, we are incredibly proud of all your hard work to build on MoonPay’s success. Thank you!

The beginning of 2024 appeared to mark a new chapter for our industry with the historic approval of multiple Bitcoin ETFs in the United States. In recent weeks, however, we have seen companies that have represented some of the best aspects of our emerging ecosystem come under mounting regulatory pressure.

Today, two things are abundantly clear: this year's election will define the future of our industry in the United States, and it is our responsibility to step up and stand alongside those organizations that want to positively advance crypto innovation for everyone.

In solidarity with Stand With Crypto, we are supporting elected officials to create a clear regulatory framework for crypto that fosters innovation while protecting consumers.

We must protect the future of crypto. We at MoonPay #StandWithCrypto. 

Onwards and upwards,

Ivan
