The company said that it would use the fund to increase the size of its engineering and customer support teams; open a GDAX office in New York City, and invest in Toshi – a browser for the Ethereum network.
“We’re fortunate to be working with IVP, one of the premier later-stage venture capital and growth equity firms in the United States,” the company said in it press statement.
Founded in 2012, Coinbase has exchanged over $25bn of digital currency for its customers.
