Digital asset custody service provider Fireblocks has announced it will acquire First Digital, a fellow Israeli company, for $100 million. The acquisition, which is said to be Fireblocks’ first, comes less than three weeks after the company revealed it raised $550 million in Series E funding.Fireblocks, a digital asset custody firm, is set to acquire the stablecoin payment platform First Digital for $100 million, a report has said.
They built one of the strongest teams when it comes to crypto, payments, and product and they will complement our capabilities. First’s significant advantage is that like Fireblocks, they built a technological platform that easily connects to the different payment providers and allows them to easily receive payments in cryptocurrencies.
While the acquisition is set to become Fireblocks’ first, Shaulov is quoted insisting that his firm’s objective now is not to go out and make more acquisitions. Rather, the focus is “to integrate First [Digital]’s team who have capabilities in many sectors.” First Digital CEO Ran Goldstein is quoted in the Calcalist report explaining the difficulties that eventually forced the company to dismiss 90% of its staff in 2018. It would be in the latter half of 2021 when First Digital’s gambit finally paid off.
“I think our gamble paid off as at the end of 2021 we attracted a lot of interest from many payments companies who wanted to add crypto payments to their offering and from crypto companies who wanted to branch out beyond trading,” Goldstein is quoted explaining.
