The cryptocurrency infrastructure company Zerohash is seeking new funding with a valuation of over $1.5 billion

According to CoinDesk, after Mastercard abandoned its investment plans, crypto infrastructure company Zerohash is raising a new round of funding at a valuation of over $1.5 billion. Mastercard had previously considered making a strategic investment in the company but later acquired BVNK for $1.8 billion, abandoning the original plan. Zerohash is raising new funds at a valuation higher than the $1.5 billion discussed at the beginning of the year.

Founded in 2017, the company provides APIs and embedded development tools for financial institutions and fintech companies, serving over 5 million users across 190 countries. Clients include Morgan Stanley, Interactive Brokers, Stripe, BlackRock's BUIDL fund, Franklin Templeton, and DraftKings. Zerohash completed a $104 million D-2 round of financing at a $1 billion valuation in September 2025, led by Interactive Brokers.
