In 2014, Bitcoin helped me send money from Seattle to my family in Lagos.
It was a much better experience than Western Union (a foreshadowing of the power of stablecoins), but it was a painful and convoluted p2p flow, built for developers, not for everyday people.
I’ve spent the last decade learning about and tackling this problem: Microsoft, Helicarrier (YC S18), Circle (USDC) and now Daya. Today, alongside @0xpeejay, I’m proud to announce @Daya_HQ: stablecoin rails for Africans moving money globally.
We raised $2.4M to build it. Thanks to our investors. Led by @HivemindCap and with support from @lattice_fund, @alliance and @Aptos
We won’t stop till our continent is fully connected to the global financial infrastructure.

We raised $2.4M to build the financial operating layer for Africans moving money across borders. Collect locally. Convert smartly. Settle globally. If you run a business, pay suppliers, work as a freelancer, receive international payments, or move money between countries, you often still face workflows that feel too manual, brittle and expensive. Daya is here to serve you.
