Bolt has hit a major financial milestone. For the first time since inception, Bolt has achieved profitability. Last month, Bolt’s gross profits hit an all-time high while OPEX reached a record low. Bolt has been doubling down on decisions that emphasize long-term profitability and market share capture. We have been investing heavily in our checkout, payments, and 1-click platform, which allow us to compete with $100b incumbents and win deals on a consistent basis. We are winning deals on cost, conversion, and customer support. We’ve also launched over 20 new product lines that have expanded our portfolio of fee capture, increased stickiness with customers, and improved customer satisfaction. We have not been afraid to make the hard strategic decisions on reorganizing our teams. For instance, we have eliminated our Account Management and Implementation Management teams entirely. Now, sales reps manage customer relationships from beginning to end, and their only counterparts are highly technical engineers. No other non-technical middlemen. Our customers say the attention they’ve received is 10x what it has been historically, and the team has never felt more empowered and motivated. These tough decisions have allowed us to cut OPEX considerably while driving record levels of revenue. Our integrations queue is currently filled to the brim. If you process payments digitally and are looking to level up, please reach out. Go Bolt.

Amazing! @streamlinedvc and I are excited to be on this journey with you guys!! Huge things ahead for @subquadratic!

Today Fun announced a $72M Series A. Since founding Fun has grown to serve millions of users and is now processing tens of billions in volume each year. We’re still early in this journey, but this is a good milestone to acknowledge the folks who really got us this far. I’m appreciative for team members like @chloefunxyz, Panda Xu, and Gabby Labi Tordjman who stuck with us through early & hard times. Grateful for folks like @connormcewen & Jeffrey Caron who have led to the team to where we are today. A special thank you to @ullastweets – who saved the company in our early days and has been a steadfast supporter on our board. There were many early supporters I learned from – like @cory & @justinmateen who supported me in getting off the ground. Obviously, a thank you to the partners who trust us with some of their most important money flows. Appreciative for the 30 team members at Fun grinding through nights & weekends to make our business a reality. Finally, appreciative for the backers who put up the capital for this next round on growth – @SpencerApplebau, Jonathan Lim, @ullastweets, Jeremy Jonker, @aghosn9 and more. Those who know me well know I’ve always wanted to build a “real” company, and am feeling grateful to be at the starting line. Fun builds the highest converting money flows for the largest global fintech applications. If you like to solve hard technical problems, believe global capital markets create good, and love to craft beautiful products, I’d love to meet. We’re aggressively hiring in NYC & Singapore.

Antaris™ Raises $28 Million Series A to Accelerate AI-Driven Space Missions spacenews.com/antaris-raises…

🎉 Mesh has closed a $75M Series C at $1B valuation. 🦄 This is more than a funding round–it’s the beginning of the end for legacy payments. For too long, global commerce has been stuck with systems that are slow, siloed, and expensive for both merchants and users. That era is ending. What we’ve built so far: ✅ A unified global network across wallets, chains, and assets ✅ Any-to-any payments via SmartFunding, with instant settlement in the merchant’s preferred currency We’re also rapidly expanding across LATAM, Asia, and Europe. Now we move into the next phase: building the universal payments network for a truly tokenized, borderless economy. Any asset. Any chain. Any geography. Thanks to our customers, partners, and investors, especially @dragonfly_xyz, @paradigm, @ModerneVentures, @cbventures, SBI Investment, and @LCVentures.
