About Figure
Figure (NASDAQ: FIGR) is transforming capital markets through blockchain. We’re proving that blockchain isn’t just theory – it’s powering real products used by hundreds of thousands of consumers and institutions.
By combining blockchain’s transparency and efficiency with AI‑driven automation, we’re reimagining how loans are originated, funded, and traded in secondary markets. From faster processing times to lower costs and reduced bias, our technology is helping borrowers, investors, and financial institutions achieve better outcomes.
We’ve originated over $17 billion in home‑equity loans (HELOCs) on our blockchain‑native platform, making Figure the largest non‑bank provider of home equity financing in the U.S. Our ecosystem also includes YLDS, an SEC‑registered yield‑bearing stablecoin that operates as a tokenized money‑market fund, among other products reshaping consumer finance and capital markets.
We’re proud to be recognized as one of Forbes’ Most Innovative Fintech Startups in 2025 and Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in Finance and Personal Finance.
