1/ Hi Farcaster Fam!

Today, we're proud to announce that Stripe is acquiring Privy.

We couldn’t be more excited.

Privy continues as an independent product – but now we’ll move faster, ship more, and serve you even better, so you can stay focused on your users.

4/ Great infra is built working with great teams, none like the Merkle crew:

📈 Farcaster: no better place to be
📊 HyperliquidX: reimagining trading
🐦‍⬛ blackbird_xyz: rewarding loyal diners
🪙 usetoku: paying a global workforce

We’re more focused than ever on serving our customers.

3/ Privy abstracts that complexity away, making crypto feel like the rest of the internet:

✅ Simple
✅ Intuitive
✅ Instant

Today, we power 75M+ accounts across 1,000+ teams, enabling billions in transactions across wallets, apps, and users.

2/ We started Privy 3 years ago to make it easy for anyone to build better products on crypto rails.

That starts with better wallets.

At the time, wallets were powerful but inaccessible – built for power users and disconnected from real product UX.

Are lack of composable KYC/AML solutions a hindrance to stablecoin payment adoption?

It would not -- we build self-custodial wallets for users globally!

congrats on the acquisition!

I actually am a little worried if this means there will be limitations for who can use privy. I'm from Peru and can't create stripe accounts. Would this limit somehow what I can do with privy?
