Miami, Florida – Crypto payments giant MoonPay has acquired DFlow, a leading trading infrastructure platform on the Solana blockchain, in an all-stock deal valued at approximately $100 million. The announcement was made at the Solana Accelerate conference in Miami, signaling MoonPay's strategic expansion beyond its core payments services into high-performance onchain execution.

Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO of MoonPay, and Nitesh Nath, CEO of DFlow, confirmed the acquisition during the event. Solana Events highlighted the development in a tweet, stating, "Moonpay's acquisition of @dflow, a pivotal piece in creating the most frictionless end-to-end consumer experience in crypto." This move aims to bolster MoonPay's offerings for traders on Solana, known for its rapid execution and low transaction fees.

DFlow has established itself as a significant player in the Solana ecosystem, processing over $50 billion in cumulative trading volume since April 2025, including more than $12 billion in the first quarter of 2026 alone. The platform serves over 1 million active traders across more than 500 applications, handling approximately 10 million transactions monthly with 99.9% token coverage on Solana. Its "just-in-time routing" technology optimizes trade execution by dynamically re-optimizing trades during onchain execution.

MoonPay CEO Ivan Soto-Wright emphasized the strategic importance of the acquisition, stating, "By bringing their execution layer into MoonPay, we're adding the speed, reliability, and scale needed to support everything from high-volume trading to the next generation of agent-driven financial applications." DFlow's capabilities also extend to tokenizing Kalshi's prediction markets on Solana and are designed for programmatic and autonomous trading.

This acquisition marks MoonPay's sixth since January 2025, underscoring its aggressive strategy to evolve into a "full-stack crypto platform" or an "operating system for value." DFlow CEO Nitesh Nath commented on the future, saying, "Joining MoonPay allows us to scale that infrastructure globally and support a new generation of applications, from trading platforms to autonomous agents." The integration is expected to enhance MoonPay's ability to cater to both retail users and institutional clients seeking efficient trading infrastructure on high-throughput blockchains like Solana.
