Fast facts

- CoinDCX became India’s first crypto unicorn after its Series C funding round led by former Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin’s B Capital and others.
- Established in 2018, the company’s milestone is a testament to the growing demand for digital assets in India.
- The surge in users comes after a long period of uncertainty over the legal status of cryptocurrencies in India.
