Zerohash is a Chicago-based crypto and stablecoin infrastructure provider that lets banks, brokerages, fintechs and marketplaces embed digital-asset products - trading, payments, stablecoins and tokenization - through a single regulated API. Rather than building blockchain rails, custody and compliance themselves, clients like Stripe, Interactive Brokers, Morgan Stanley and Franklin Templeton plug into Zerohash's licensed, end-to-end platform. Founded in 2017 by Edward Woodford, the company reached unicorn status in 2025 and has settled tens of billions of dollars in volume for millions of end users across nearly 200 jurisdictions.
