Celebrating 12 Years of Unocoin — India’s Crypto Pioneer Continues!

It’s extraordinary to look back at the journey that began more than thirteen years ago. Today, we proudly celebrate the 12 anniversary of Unocoin — a symbol of resilience, innovation, and financial empowerment for millions of Indians. What started as a bold, disruptive idea has grown into the heartbeat of India’s crypto ecosystem.

Founded by Sathvik Vishwanath and Sunny Ray, Unocoin has evolved from a simple concept into a national force championing digital finance. For over a decade, Unocoin has played a pivotal role in accelerating the adoption, understanding, and acceptance of cryptocurrencies in India.
Thirteen years later, the mission is stronger than ever.

Where It All Began (2013)

The Unocoin story began with Sunny Ray, a Canadian-born visionary fascinated by Bitcoin’s revolutionary potential. His curiosity led him to start a blog called Unocoin — inspired by the Spanish word “Uno,” meaning one, symbolising a new beginning.

A chance interaction during a Bitcoin meetup in Bengaluru changed everything. Sunny met Sathvik Vishwanath, a tech-driven entrepreneur who shared the same passion and believed India needed a gateway to the crypto world.
That vision transformed a blog into India’s first and most trusted cryptocurrency exchange.

The Early Years: Challenges, Growth & Breakthroughs

The early journey wasn’t easy. Back then, cryptocurrencies were misunderstood, doubted, and often dismissed. Regulatory uncertainty clouded the ecosystem. Yet, Unocoin remained unwavering in its mission to democratise digital finance.

A major milestone arrived when global crypto leader Barry Silbert invested in Unocoin — a monumental validation of Unocoin’s vision and India’s potential.
This investment accelerated Unocoin’s growth and set the stage for national impact.

The Legal Battle That Changed India’s Crypto Landscape

Perhaps the most defining chapter in Unocoin’s story came when the Indian government considered a blanket ban on cryptocurrencies.
Unocoin’s co-founder Harish B.V. took a historic stand, challenging the ban in court with courage and conviction.

The landmark legal victory didn’t just protect Unocoin —
it protected India’s entire crypto industry.
It was a turning point that legitimised digital assets in the country and cemented Unocoin’s role as a pioneer.
