Blockchain micropayments service SatoshiPay has secured a strategic investment of $550,000 from The Stellar Development Foundation (SDF)—the non-profit behind the cryptocurrency Stellar.
According to a press release today, this is the third investment made by the SDF in SatoshiPay, and it’s supposed to primarily help the micropayments provider to develop and market its new B2B commercial solution for cross-border payments.

The product is currently being tested, with a closed alpha version scheduled to launch by mid-July and public beta slated for Q4 2020.
Prior to this, the Stellar Foundation and SatoshiPay have had a long history of collaboration, which is unsurprising given that the micropayments provider was one of the first enterprises to use Stellar commercially.
“SDF is a key partner of SatoshiPay providing maintenance and partner support for the Stellar decentralised ledger network. This investment will enhance the already strong relationship that exists between the two organisations and provides a strong endorsement for SatoshiPay,” the release stated.
The investment is provided in the form of convertible loan notes which will be converted during SatoshiPay’s next funding round.
"Our growth over the years wouldn't have been possible without SDF, who has been an essential partner to us in the development of our technology which continues today with this investment," said Meinhard Benn, CEO of SatoshiPay.
SatoshiPay is on fire right now. After scoring a partnership with Europe’s largest publishing house Axel Springer earlier this year, they’re at it again, this time it’s by divvying up a $1 million grant from the Stellar Foundation. SatoshiPay and Stellar have history. Stellar powers the SatoshiPay network, and ensures payments run smoothly. And now, the Stellar Development Foundation--the non-profit custodian of the cryptocurrency--has earmarked the micropayments provider as a route to wider ado...
As Decrypt reported previously, the Stellar Foundation funded a $1 million SatoshiPay grant program in February 2019. At the time, this became a part of SatoshiPay’s shift toward gaming, streaming and social media tipping.
In January 2019, SatoshiPay also teamed up with Axel Springer, Europe’s largest publishing house. The partnership sees to support online journalism by offering alternative ways to earn tips for news content.
This article has been updated to show that the investment was $550,000, not €550,000, according to a correction issued for the press release.
Dubai's government will accept cryptocurrencies for payments, the finance department said on Monday. After signing a memorandum of understanding with crypto exchange Crypto.com, Dubai Finance, which manages the city's budget, said it would accept digital assets for government fees. It did not specify which digital coins and tokens it plans to accept. Dubai is considered a crypto-friendly city; the emirate last week hosted the Token2049 conference, and a number of digital asset companies are bas...
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has revealed that the crypto exchange considered putting 80% of its balance sheet into Bitcoin—but decided against it over fears it could "kill the company." During a question-and-answer session with customers, executives were asked whether they missed an opportunity to start amassing BTC sooner, given the company had an eight-year headstart on software firm Strategy. We’re live with @brian_armstrong, @GregTusar, and Alesia Haas answering community questions followi...
BitGo has secured regulatory approval from Germany's Federal Financial Supervisory Authority, BaFin, enabling the U.S. crypto custody provider to expand its services across the European Union's member countries. The license positions BitGo as one of the first American digital asset firms to gain recognition under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework, a unified regulatory system, rolling out crypto custody services for its institutional clients across the bloc this year.
