WYER

Founded in 2013, Wyre, Inc. was a financial technology company that built blockchain-based payment infrastructure. Its mission was to lower the barrier to entry for developers and businesses looking to integrate cryptocurrency into their applications. Wyre provided a set of APIs that enabled services such as global crypto-to-fiat exchange, wallet infrastructure, and cross-border payments. The company was a key player in the "crypto-as-a-service" space, powering many popular fintech and crypto applications. Following a collapsed acquisition deal with Bolt and facing challenges in the broader crypto market, Wyre officially announced it was ceasing operations and winding down in June 2023.
