Crypto startup Liquid, which aggregates multiple decentralized perpetual futures exchanges — including Hyperliquid, Lighter, and Ostium — into one non-custodial app, has raised $7.6 million in a seed funding round.
Paradigm led the seed round, with General Catalyst and several angel investors joining, including Ashwin Ramachandran (head of Brevan Howard Digital), Eric Wu (co-founder of Opendoor), Vlad Novakovski (founder of Lighter), and crypto trader smartestmoney.hl, Liquid founder Franklyn Wang told The Block.
The round was structured as equity and closed within five days in March, Wang said, declining to comment on the post-money valuation.
