BlockBeats News, December 11th, according to The Block, Loop Crypto announced on Tuesday that it will partner with Lead Bank to seize the anticipated stablecoin growth opportunity.
Lead Bank, a 97-year-old community bank based in Kansas City, Missouri, has recently shifted its focus to fintech and cryptocurrency companies. The bank was acquired by a group of tech executives led by Jackie Reses in 2022. Earlier this year, Lead Bank completed a $70 million Series B funding round, valuing the bank at $1.47 billion. Investors include Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), ICONIQ, Greycroft, Ribbit Capital, Coatue, Khosla Ventures, and Zeev Ventures.
Meanwhile, Loop Crypto announced earlier this year that the company has raised a total of $6 million, with some funding also coming from a16z.
