MoonPay announced the launch of MoonPay Trade, a new technology platform designed to give applications, financial institutions, and enterprises access to digital assets and onchain liquidity across more than 200 blockchains and protocols through a single API.
As part of the launch, MoonPay also confirmed it acquired and integrated Decent.xyz, a Y Combinator-backed cross-chain routing company whose infrastructure now powers MoonPay Trade. Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
MoonPay said the platform is designed to simplify access to fragmented onchain liquidity markets by handling transaction execution, settlement, conversion, and payments across more than 120 fiat currencies. The company said MoonPay Trade will serve as the execution layer for MoonPay Institutional, its regulated financial services business unit led by former acting CFTC Chairman Caroline D. Pham.
The company noted that MoonPay Trade expands its broader infrastructure strategy around tokenized financial services products and digital asset markets. Over the past 18 months, MoonPay said it completed more than six acquisitions across payments, stablecoins, digital asset custody, and onchain trade execution infrastructure.
MoonPay also highlighted its recent acquisition of DFlow, a trading infrastructure provider on Solana that processed more than $12 billion in trading volume during the first quarter of 2026. According to the company, MoonPay Trade and DFlow together extend execution capabilities across EVM, cross-chain, and Solana-native markets.
The platform includes cross-chain routing and execution, collateral mobility, fiat-to-onchain liquidity conversion, compliance infrastructure, and unified balances across chains. MoonPay said the system is built to support institutional adoption of tokenized assets and decentralized finance infrastructure.
The company cited growing institutional demand for tokenized real-world assets, noting the market has surpassed $25 billion in onchain value. MoonPay referenced projections from Boston Consulting Group estimating tokenized real-world assets could reach $14 trillion by 2030 and $55 trillion by 2035.
Decent.xyz was founded in 2021 by Charlie Durbin, Will Collier, Will Kantaros, and Xander Carlson. The company developed routing algorithms, bridge infrastructure, and aggregation technology designed to optimize execution across hundreds of chains and millions of digital assets.
