MoonPay Acquires DFlow To Bolster Solana Trading Infrastructure And Crypto Prime Brokerage Capabilities

MoonPay, a prominent crypto payments network, has announced its acquisition of DFlow, a rapidly expanding trading infrastructure platform operating on the Solana blockchain.
 

Since April 2025, DFlow has achieved a cumulative trading volume exceeding $50 billion, including over $12 billion in the first quarter of 2026 alone. The platform supports more than one million active traders across over 500 applications, processing approximately 10 million transactions monthly with 99.9% token coverage on Solana. It powers major platforms such as Coinbase, Phantom, Solflare, and Kamino. In November 2025, DFlow became the first aggregator to surpass Jupiter in daily trading volume on Solana. During peak periods, over 85% of Solana blocks incorporate a DFlow-powered transaction. DFlow also developed the first and only system to fully tokenise Kalshi's prediction markets on Solana, an innovation that could also be relevant to those interested in token listing strategies.
 

This acquisition marks the latest in a series for MoonPay since January 2025, each designed to expand its platform capabilities. These expansions have ranged from payments and stablecoins to institutional custody and now include high-performance onchain execution. This strategic move aligns with the growing demand for robust crypto prime brokerages and comprehensive digital asset services.

Ivan Soto-Wright, Founder and CEO of MoonPay commented:

“DFlow has become one of the most important pieces of trading infrastructure on Solana in just a year. By bringing their execution layer into MoonPay, we're adding the speed, reliability, and scale needed to support everything from high-volume trading to the next generation of agent-driven financial applications.”

DFlow's rapid adoption is attributed to a significant technical advancement: just-in-time routing. Unlike traditional aggregators that calculate optimal routes before a transaction is submitted, high-throughput chains like Solana, where proprietary automated market makers (AMMs) frequently update prices, can experience shifting conditions between route calculation and onchain execution. DFlow pioneered the dynamic re-optimisation of trades during the onchain execution itself, checking venue prices at the point of settlement and rerouting within the same transaction if conditions have changed. This approach yields improved pricing, fewer failed transactions, and a system that performs better under load, rather than degrading, a crucial aspect of blockchain scalability.

Nitesh Nath, Founder and CEO of DFlow commented:

“DFlow was built to solve one of the hardest problems in crypto: delivering reliable execution in a fragmented onchain environment. Joining MoonPay allows us to scale that infrastructure globally and support a new generation of applications, from trading platforms to autonomous agents.”

Beyond token trading, DFlow provides a foundational infrastructure layer for new categories of programmable financial markets onchain. The company developed the first and only API that fully tokenises Kalshi's prediction markets on Solana. This allows developers direct access to real, onchain representations of every market in Kalshi's orderbook by converting each Kalshi market position into a native Solana token, minted and settled via DFlow's infrastructure. By exposing regulated, offchain liquidity through a developer-facing API, DFlow renders prediction markets composable for the first time. Applications can embed forecasting markets directly into their product interfaces, and positions can interact with existing financial infrastructure through standard token interfaces. This system currently underpins prediction market functionality across leading consumer applications and is being expanded to support a broader range of tokenised real-world assets.
 

DFlow is specifically designed for programmatic and autonomous trading. Its Agent CLI enables developers to provision trading agents with a Solana wallet and execution capabilities in a single step. Integrations with MoonPay's CLI facilitate funding from fiat to crypto. The system also integrates with Claude Code via a native MCP server, allowing AI trading platforms and agents to access trading functionality directly within their workflows. Operators can establish guardrails, including trade size limits, approved assets, and rate controls, ensuring agents operate within defined parameters. Combined with MoonPay's existing agent infrastructure, including MoonPay Agents and the Open Wallet Standard, this creates a more unified platform for automated, agent-driven financial activity.
 

The acquisition of DFlow by MoonPay highlights the increasing sophistication and demand for high-performance trading infrastructure within the digital asset space. This trend towards enhanced onchain execution and agent-driven finance is directly relevant to institutional participants in traditional FX markets and prime brokerage, who continuously seek advanced solutions for liquidity management, algorithmic trading, and robust platform capabilities. As the lines between traditional finance and digital assets continue to blur, understanding the evolution of such infrastructure is crucial for firms engaged in providing what are liquidity providers and other essential services.
