As stablecoins continue reshaping global finance, OpenTrade has secured $17 million in strategic funding to expand its infrastructure for institutional grade yield products. The company is building tools that allow fintechs, exchanges, and digital asset platforms to offer regulated yield opportunities tied to stablecoins without managing the underlying complexity themselves.
Investors Double Down on Stablecoin Infrastructure
The funding round was led by Mercury Fund and Notion Capital, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz Crypto, AlbionVC, and CMCC Global.
With this latest raise, OpenTrade’s total funding now exceeds $30 million, reflecting growing investor confidence in the infrastructure layer supporting digital assets and tokenised finance.
Riding the Stablecoin Boom
The investment comes as the global stablecoin market surpasses $300 billion in supply, creating rising demand for reliable systems that connect stablecoins to real world yield opportunities.
Stablecoins have become a critical component of digital finance because they combine the speed and accessibility of blockchain technology with the relative price stability of fiat currencies. However, many fintechs and exchanges still lack the infrastructure needed to safely offer yield generating products tied to these assets.
OpenTrade is positioning itself to solve this challenge by providing plug and play infrastructure that allows companies to launch dollar and euro denominated yield products backed by real world assets.
Simplifying Institutional Grade Yield
The company’s platform is designed to eliminate the operational burden associated with investment management, custody, and compliance. Instead of building complex systems internally, fintechs and neobanks can integrate OpenTrade’s infrastructure directly into their products.
This approach enables financial platforms to provide yield services while focusing on customer experience and distribution.
Since launching, OpenTrade has attracted partners including Littio, Midas Kripto, and Glim.
The company reports that it has already surpassed $200 million in total value locked and processed more than $250 million in transaction volume during 2025.
Expanding Beyond Core Infrastructure
As adoption has grown, OpenTrade has expanded its offering beyond its original infrastructure platform. The company has introduced a permissionless protocol layer alongside a service suite called Curation+.
Curation+ is designed to support more advanced investment strategies across both real world and on chain assets. It allows asset issuers, treasuries, and non custodial platforms to access diversified yield strategies without handling operational complexity directly.
The service combines portfolio design, active execution, and regulated asset management oversight, helping institutions manage digital asset exposure more efficiently.
Building a Permissionless Financial Layer
OpenTrade has also launched a permissionless protocol capable of issuing transferable position tracking tokens. Its first live implementation is already operating through Sierra Protocol.
This development signals the company’s ambition to move beyond infrastructure services and become a broader financial layer for tokenised yield products.
By enabling programmable and transferable financial positions, the protocol supports a growing ecosystem of decentralised and hybrid finance applications.
Scaling Globally
According to co founder and CEO David Sutter, the company initially focused on helping fintechs and neobanks integrate stablecoin yield products but soon recognised broader demand from asset issuers, treasuries, and non custodial platforms.
The newly raised capital will be used to further develop OpenTrade’s infrastructure, expand its Curation+ offering, and grow its engineering, asset management, and customer success teams.
Positioning for the Future of Finance
As digital assets increasingly intersect with traditional financial markets, companies providing secure and scalable infrastructure are becoming essential to the sector’s growth.
OpenTrade is positioning itself at the centre of this transition by building tools that connect stablecoins with diversified yield opportunities in a compliant and accessible way.
With fresh funding and rapidly growing adoption, the company is aiming to become a foundational player in the evolving global financial ecosystem.
