🚀 Richard Liu, co-founder and co-CEO of @Huma Finance 🟣 , is on a mission to reshape global payment financing. With seven years at Google contributing to Google Fi, founding Leap.ai (later acquired by Facebook), and serving as CTO at fintech giant EarnIn, Liu brings unmatched expertise to the blockchain space.
💡 Huma Finance focuses on Payment Financing (PayFi) within the Real-World Asset space, already processing over $1.8 billion in on-chain transactions for financial institutions worldwide. Stablecoins play a crucial role in powering this growth, making transactions faster, more transparent, and borderless.
🔥 Recently, Huma Finance secured $38 million in funding. This includes $10 million equity and $28 million liquidity, led by Distributed Global with participation from Solana, Hashkey Capital, and the Stellar Development Foundation. This capital will fuel expansion into ecosystems like Solana and Stellar’s Soroban smart-contract network.
🌐 Liu’s vision is bold. He aims to build an open payment financing network on the blockchain that can surpass traditional systems like Visa in speed, cost efficiency, and global accessibility.
📈 With its innovative PayFi platform, Huma Finance is not just participating in the future of finance. It is building it.
