Ven first appeared as an application in Facebook on 4 July, 2007.

By the end of 2009 hundreds of services and items (ranging from private jet service to juice) were available in Ven at Hub Culture Pavilions - the first physical locations in the world to operate entirely on a virtual currency.In 2010 Ven added Carbon to its basket components, alongside multiple currencies and commodities, making it the first green currency, with a theoretical carbon offset attached to each transaction. Its stability in the international markets has made Ven an attractive pricing option in the commodities sector, where physical trades for goods priced in Ven are now taking place on a bespoke exchange platform created by the company. By 2012, Ven had expanded into the first virtual currency funds focused on commodities, micro-finance, equity stake vehicles and P2P exchange.
