First Digital Asset

First Digital, also known as First DAG, was a Tel Aviv-based financial technology company founded in 2017 by CEO Ran "Goldi" Goldshtein, Yariv Gilat, and Etai Raz. The company built the first global digital payment platform for payment service providers (PSPs) and acquirers, offering stablecoin, central bank digital currency, and other cryptocurrency-related payment solutions and APIs, including support for Diem and Celo transactions, treasury management, and fraud-prevention services such as AML and KYC. Its clients included Celo, PayU, and the Diem Association. In February 2022, Fireblocks acquired First Digital for roughly $100 million to expand its payments capabilities, integrating First Digital's team and technology into its engineering organization.
