The raise more than doubles the company’s previous valuation.

Blockchain.com was valued at $14 billion in an investment round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners and including “significant participation” from Baille Gifford & Co, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday. The fundraising total was not disclosed.
According to the article, the United Kingdom-based company raised $300 million in March last year at a valuation of $5.2 billion. That round was also attended by Lightspeed and VY Capital.
