TechFlow news — On November 21, according to Sifted, documents filed with the UK Companies Registry this month reveal that Deblock, a cryptocurrency wallet founded by former executives from Revolut and Ledger, has secured an additional $16.8 million (£13.3 million) in seed funding. A separate filing from October shows that Headline, Hoxton, 20VC, and Chalfen were the main investors in this round. Sifted previously reported that the startup quietly raised €12 million last year.
Founded in August 2022 by Jean Meyer, former head of crypto at Revolut, Aaron Beck, former payments lead, and Mario Eguiliuz, ex-head of engineering at Ledger, Deblock later recruited Adriana Restrepo, former Chief Operating Officer of Revolut’s European banking operations, as its fourth co-founder.
Jean Meyer, CEO of Deblock, declined to comment on the fundraising. According to its website, the Deblock app is currently only available in France, where it operates under regulation as an electronic money institution and digital asset service provider.
