Stellar Development Foundation (SDF), que es la empresa detrás de Stellar Network, ha invertido en MoneyGram International. SDF dijo en un comunicado el martes que invirtió fondos de su propia tesorería en efectivo para convertirse en accionista minoritario de MoneyGram.

Today’s news expands on an ongoing partnership between SDF and MoneyGram. Both companies previously collaborated to promote cryptocurrency payments and introduce a cash-to-crypto service.

Commenting on SDF’s investment in MoneyGram, SDF CEO, and Executive Director Denelle Dixon said in a declaración:

During the recent go-private transaction with Madison Dearborn Partners (MDP), SDF became a minority investor in MGI. The investment was made out of SDF’s own cash treasury, the assets set aside to support the operations of the SDF, rather than the Enterprise Fund, a fund to invest in startups and earlier-stage companies. It is the first investment of its kind made from SDF’s treasury.

Dixon further noted that the investment would support the growth of MoneyGram’s digital businesses and also provide SDF with a seat on MoneyGram’s board of directors.

La decisión de invertir en @MoneyGram was an easy one. After years of getting to know the business and the teams, we are excited to take part in MGI’s next chapter. It’s been an awesome few years working together, and we are excited for what’s next!https://t.co/PYAKHeXRxx

Dixon also hailed Stellar’s partnership with MoneyGram as one of the reasons for the growth of the XLM ecosystem. In a Twitter post, the Stellar executive claimed the Stellar network became the “leader of cash-to-crypto on and off-ramps” thanks to its partnership with MoneyGram. She added that MoneyGram’s contribution to Steller’s growth made it an “easy” choice to invest in the payment company.

Stellar es una de las listas crecientes de criptoproyectos que utilizan blockchain para promover Transacciones transfronterizas más rápidas. Su criptomoneda XLM ocupa actualmente el puesto 22 en términos de capitalización de mercado.
