DECACORN
Bolt offers one-click checkout to merchants via its network of shoppers' saved payment credentials. Faced significant controversy around founder Ryan Breslow's departure and internal disclosures in 2022-23. Current CEO Maju Kuruvilla (ex-Amazon) is leading turnaround. Founder Breslow returned as CEO in 2024.

Growth
Valued at $11B in the BlackRock-led Series E of January 2022. A 2024 attempt to raise $450M at $14B — partly in influencer-marketing credits, structured so existing investors who declined would be crammed down — drew public objections and was never confirmed closed; reporting at the time put annualised revenue near $28M, and the company later cut about a third of its staff.

Implied per-share price from private secondary transactions, as of Jun 2026. This is a point estimate, not a quote — the feed carries no bid, ask or spread, and a secondary print is evidence of what someone paid on that date rather than a live market. The feed’s last-round price for this company is not a plausible per-share figure, so no comparison is shown. Compare across every tracked name →
