Gate Ventures, the venture capital arm of Gate.com, today announced its strategic investment in Mesh, a leading crypto payments network building the connective infrastructure that unifies wallets, exchanges, payment service providers, and fiat rails into a single integration.
This investment reflects Gate Ventures’ conviction that stablecoins and crypto native payments are rapidly becoming core financial infrastructure, but remain constrained by fragmentation across networks, platforms, and regions. Mesh is addressing this challenge by abstracting complexity into a unified payments layer, enabling seamless value transfer across crypto and fiat ecosystems.
As digital assets evolve beyond trading into commerce, cross-border settlement, and programmable money flows, the winners will be platforms that make crypto payments as simple, compliant, and reliable as traditional payment systems, without sacrificing global reach or composability.
Gate Ventures believes Mesh is uniquely positioned to serve as a foundational payments layer for this transition, connecting the fragmented crypto payments landscape into a single, developer-friendly network.
Founded in 2020, Mesh is building a horizontal connectivity layer that allows businesses to integrate crypto payments, deposits, withdrawals, and stablecoin settlement through a single API. Rather than operating as a closed network, Mesh aggregates integrations across the broader ecosystem, creating interoperability between wallets, exchanges, banks, on and off ramps, orchestration layers, and payment service providers.
Mesh’s platform supports:
- Unified connectivity across wallets, exchanges, brokerages, and banks
- On and off ramp aggregation to simplify fiat, crypto and stablecoin flows
- Payment orchestration across regions, rails, and counterparties
- Merchant and PSP integrations enabling crypto-native and stablecoin payments
- Agent ready infrastructure, allowing secure transaction execution for emerging AI-driven commerce use cases
Together, these capabilities position Mesh as a core infrastructure layer for stablecoin-powered payments and global value movement.
Mesh has established partnerships across the crypto and payments ecosystem, working with leading wallets, exchanges, stablecoin issuers, fintech platforms, and payment service providers. These integrations allow Mesh to serve a broad range of use cases spanning consumer payments, B2B transfers, exchange funding, and embedded crypto finance.
Gate Ventures believes Mesh has carved out a differentiated position in the crypto payments landscape by taking a horizontal, connectivity first approach rather than operating as a siloed payment network. Its platform is designed to aggregate and abstract complexity across multiple payment rails, enabling enterprises to integrate crypto and stablecoin payments with reliability, scalability, and compliance in mind.
By embedding directly into existing user flows across wallets, exchanges, and payment platforms, Mesh positions itself as core infrastructure rather than an overlay. This approach is reinforced by a founding team with deep experience across payments, fintech, and crypto infrastructure, bringing an execution driven mindset to building production-grade financial systems.
This positioning enables Mesh to act as the connective tissue between traditional payments and the emerging on chain economy.
