Jan 31, 2022

We welcomed 2022 with new partnerships and milestones, highlighted by our newest collaboration with LeBron James and the LeBron James Family Foundation (LJFF) to support educational and workforce development opportunities focused on Web3. 

Earlier this month, we secured a five-year collaboration with the Australian Football League. As a major partner, Crypto.com secured the naming rights to the AFL Score Review. In addition, Crypto.com is now the official crypto trading platform of the Adelaide Football Club, thanks to a new multi-year agreement. 

We increased the deposit and withdrawal limits of multiple Fiat Wallets in the Crypto.com App, and the Exchange now offers increased fiat bank transfer limits. ​​Early Direct Deposit for paychecks and government payments is now available for Crypto.com App users in the U.S. Meanwhile, the Crypto.com DeFi Wallet now features VVS mines for DeFi Earn.

We also continued to provide rewarding experiences to our community, with promotions such as the Crypto.com Arena Tickets Giveaway, as well as a series of campaigns to celebrate the launch of the official Loaded Lions Twitter page.

Crypto.com Capital made several announcements, including the addition of tech journalist Jon Russell as an Asia-based general partner, the expansion of its USD 200 million Web3 fund, and the increase of its venture funding to USD 500 million.
