EDGE Pro, a new institutional platform, enables high-throughput deposit accounts and real-time funding across multiple liquidity venues, while pursuing National Futures Association registrations as Introducing Broker and Futures Commission Merchant to allow direct trading through EDGE Pro accounts.

The funding will power the launch of EDGE Pro, a banking platform for prediction-market market makers, delivering real-time transfers and settlements between CFTC-regulated trading venues.

EDGE Pro targets real-time deposits into CFTC-regulated exchanges, aiming to reduce friction for institutional capital via multi‑liquidity post-execution settlement and margin support.

EDGE Markets closed a $29.2 million Series A led by CoinFund, with participation from Indicator Ventures, Mantis VC, Stepstone Group and Bullpen Capital, to expand its financial infrastructure for gaming, crypto and prediction markets.

Previously, EDGE Markets raised $17.2 million in a March 2025 seed round, signaling ongoing investor interest in its gaming-focused fintech tools for bettors and crypto investors.

The company’s Series A rounds underscore growing institutional interest in regulated crypto financial services and infrastructure.

The fundraising comes amid broader institutional appetite for regulated crypto infrastructure, signaling a shift toward foundational settlement layers for crypto-enabled markets.

The funding and product lineup aim to accelerate adoption among operators and institutional traders, building a foundational settlement layer at the intersection of payments, trading and regulated gaming.

EDGE Markets will use the new capital to expand market presence and product innovation, prioritizing compliant and secure crypto financial services.
