Fin
Fin is a New York-based stablecoin payments company building a mobile app for high-value, global, and instant money movement. Founded by ex-Citadel engineers Ian Krotinsky and Aashiq Dheeraj - the team behind TipLink - Fin unifies balances into USDC and lets users and businesses send millions of dollars in near real time to other Fin users, bank accounts, or crypto wallets. In December 2025 it raised a $17M Series A led by Pantera Capital, with Sequoia and Samsung Next participating, to launch a product aimed at import/export businesses and high-value transfers that traditional banks handle slowly and expensively.
