VALR bridges the gap between our traditional financial system and the new world of cryptocurrencies. Heres why:
There is a socio-financial transition taking place in the world. The organisation of our world into nation-states no longer ministers to the needs of humanity. Humanity yearns to be unified; yet our structures continue to divide us.
Money is one of those structures, predominantly defined by the nation-state. The divisions and frictions caused by our antiquated nation-state system have permeated our financial system. These frictions license financial intermediaries to extract financial value from humanity’s cross-border relationships, often at exorbitant rates.
“It is expensive to be poor” is truer in the financial industry than any other. We need a new organisational paradigm for society that transcends the nation-state. This in turn will remove some of the frictions in our financial system.
But our political systems are mired in vested interests that a deliberate transition by those in power to a system that puts the whole ahead of its constituent parts seems unimaginable, propagating the financial frictions.
In the absence of a societal paradigm that eliminates these man-made frictions, cryptocurrencies (and crypto assets in general) have emerged and rise above national borders.
Cryptocurrencies hold the promise of being the most frictionless asset class humanity has ever seen. Yet the process to access these assets from our traditional financial system remains difficult.
Our mission is to usher in a new financial paradigm.
Join us in building a financial system that recognises the oneness of humanity.

Our mission is to help more people start better startups.
ODF is a program we created over four years ago to help those at the exploration stage of starting a company. So far, weve helped over 1000 companies get started and raise over $2 billion.
Starting a company is really exciting, but there are so many things you need to figure out in order to actually build one.
- "Who might I start my company with?"
- “What might we build?”
- “Who might our initial customers be?”
- “Should we raise funding soon, or should we try to bootstrap in the beginning?"
These and many more questions are what we refer to as the "missing pieces"—the things you need to figure out to know if starting a company is right for you and what company you should ultimately build.
With ODF, we bring together 80 to 100 people who are at the very same stage as you. Theyre all exceptionally talented, and theyre all trying to figure it out together.

ChangeTip is changing the world by facilitating simple, global micropayments across any and every social media or digital platform.
It’s a safe, easy way to send or receive tips and donations anywhere, to anyone. Using bitcoin or USD to express social gratitude or admiration turns a moment of passing appreciation into something that lasts, takes digital pocket change and puts it to work in the world.
We make it simple for artists and charities to receive tips or for generous-hearted tippers to send donations to the artists that inspire them, the speakers and writers who encourage them, and the organizations that move them.
And for those artists, speakers, writers, and organizations: setting up a ChangeTip interface is a simple way to reduce your need for ads or to gamify and monetize your rewards and loyalty programs.
ChangeTip members discover that expressing their support and encouragement in a financial way becomes just as easy as a like or a share.
