Blockchain, operating as Blockchain.com, is a global crypto infrastructure provider for people, institutions, and AI, offering a crypto wallet, exchange, explorer, and digital asset infrastructure platform based in the United States. The company says its work began in 2011, with 95M+ wallets created, $1.1T+ in volume moved through its platform, and 20+ products across market segments. Its products include personal brokerage, DeFi Wallet, institutional prime brokerage, OTC trading and options, custody, staking, ventures, liquidity provisioning, APIs, crypto treasuries, token distribution, and nodes-as-a-service. Blockchain.com says it built the original Blockchain Explorer, described as a search engine for Bitcoin transactions, and that its wallet put self-custody in the hands of millions. Blockchain's TwitterScore is 341 out of 1000.

Blockchain was founded by Peter Smith as CEO, Co-Founder & Executive Chairman, Nic Cary as Vice Chairman & Co-Founder, and Ben Reeves. The company is backed by VY Capital, GV, Lakestar, Lightspeed, Baillie Gifford, Kingsway Capital, Moore Strategic Ventures, Access Industries, Rovida Advisors, Eldridge, Mosaic Ventures, and DST Global, and is affiliated with Blockchain Ventures, which states Blockchain.com has raised $537M in equity capital and has invested in 40+ projects. Blockchain.com was reported to have raised $110 million in Series E funding in 2023 led by Kingsway Capital, with Baillie Gifford, Lakestar, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and Coinbase Ventures also participating.

In 2022, Blockchain.com was reported to face an approximately $270 million default impact from cryptocurrency and U.S. dollar loans to Three Arrows Capital after 3AC became insolvent; this was reported as exposure and default impact, not wrongdoing by Blockchain.com. Also in 2022, Blockchain.com reportedly laid off 25% of staff, about 150 people, amid the crypto downturn and Three Arrows Capital fallout. Wired had previously reported that Blockchain was distinct among early Bitcoin startups because it avoided custody risk and had not suffered a major crisis at the time of the 2017 article. Blockchain has 1,356,269 followers and 20,326 posts, and is mentioned by 1,305 accounts.
