According to sources close to the situation, the San Francisco startup, which has raised more than $225 million in venture funding, is in talks to purchase Earn.com, which rebranded late last year from 21.co with the launch of its eponymous paid messaging platform.

Sources with knowledge of the talks gave different estimates of the price. One of those sources claimed Earn could be selling for $30 million. But another, who is directly involved in the discussions, said the total value of cash, cryptocurrency, stock and earn-out being discussed would exceed the more than $120 million Earn has raised over multiple funding rounds since its founding in 2013.
