New York-based Moonpay is close to completing the fundraising round, the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the discussions are private. The targeted valuation would represent a step up from the company’s previous valuation of roughly $3.4 billion reached during the 2021 crypto bull market. The size of ICE’s potential investment has not been disclosed, and the terms of the round are still subject to change. Neither ICE nor Moonpay has commented publicly on the talks, Bloomberg reported.

The reported discussions point to continued interest from major financial market operators in crypto-related infrastructure rather than direct exposure to digital asset trading. Earlier this year, ICE invested in Polymarket, as the NYSE owner injected $2 billion into the predictions marketplace. Moonpay provides fiat-to- crypto payment and on-ramp services used by exchanges, wallets, and consumer platforms, making it a key intermediary between traditional financial (TradFi) systems and digital assets.

For ICE, which owns and operates major global exchanges, including the NYSE, the potential investment would align with a broader pattern of cautiously engaging with crypto-adjacent businesses. Bloomberg noted that the funding round has not yet closed and could still be altered or delayed before final agreements are reached.
