The allocation is poised to deepen the relationship between Celo, as the browser transitions from a distribution partner to a network stakeholder. Since 2021, the two have partnered, resulting in the launch of the MiniPay Stablecoin Wallet on the Celo blockchain. They have already signed a three-year agreement that has seen over 50 million Opera browser users earn rewards and redeem USDC within MiniPay.

“Celo’s infrastructure and mission-aligned ecosystem have been instrumental in our work building and scaling powerful mobile financial technology with MiniPay,” said Jørgen Arnesen, EVP Mobile, Opera. “Through this continued partnership, we’re making a long-term commitment to the Celo ecosystem and to bringing that utility to our global user base.”

The deepening ties come on the heels of an exceptional year of execution and financial overperformance. The company delivered solid financial results driven by growth in both advertising and query revenue, fueled by e-commerce and expanding monetization of user intent. Its advertising revenue was up 25% in 2025 to $114.4 million. The board also approved a $300 million share repurchase program, affirming its commitment to shareholder value.
