PRIVY
Company Overview.
Description.
Privy (Horkos, Inc.) provides wallet infrastructure for developers to embed secure, programmable wallets into any application. Founded in 2021 by Henri Stern, Asta, and the Privy team, Privy enables developers to onboard users with email, SMS, social logins, or existing wallets while providing enterprise-grade key management through TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) and distributed key sharding. The platform supports EVM, Solana, Bitcoin, and 120+ networks, powering over 120 million accounts across 2,000+ developer teams including Kraken, JPMorgan, and Shopify. In June 2025, Stripe acquired Privy to integrate crypto payment rails into its platform, with Privy continuing to operate as an independent product.
