Company mission
Starlight's mission is to make crypto accessible for companies of all stages and industries.
Our take
The decentralized nature of cryptocurrency presents a significant opportunities for the future of finance, but transactions are mostly carried out by individual investors, day traders, and blockchain engineers. However, with blockchain protocols becoming more sustainable and Web3 concepts such as NFTs and Metaverse beooming more mainstream, many businesses are seeking to futureproof their operations by setting up cryptocurrency accounting systems.
Starlight provides a cryptocurrency management tool for companies, allowing them to set up a company crypto wallet, onboard employees, track crypto spending, and access over 75,000 cryptocurrencies and tokens to futureproof their finances. In addition to facilitating company crypto payments, the service also provides spending and distribution analytics, and non-custodial Ethereum wallet access, in addition to integration within other blockchain technologies and accounting software.
Whilst businesses can already create internal Ethereum wallets and track their expenditure through traditional means, Starlight has been smart to recognize that there is not a unified platform for this. Having raised significant venture capital funding it will move to expand its integrations with additional blockchains and monetize additional revenue streams.
