Dragonfly Capital led a $28m round in Arbelos Markets.

Dragonfly Capital, an investment banking firm, led a $28m round in Arbelos Markets, a trading firm, with participation from Room40 Ventures, Selini Capital, Breed VC, FalconX, Circle Ventures, Paxos, P2 Ventures, Deribit, Chorus One, StarkWare, Immutable, Aevo, Cega, Talos, Amberdata and Framework. "With crypto assuming its role as an investable asset class in macro portfolio allocations, it needs a new type of capital markets firm: a smart principal risk-taker with a strong balance sheet and a flexible product set to underwrite the fast-moving crossover risk between the underlying technology and the financial markets built on top. Arbelos is replacing the pre-FTX, reputational-trust based bilateral trading system with one based on provable trust, powered by our proprietary Transparency Engine and built by traders and quants that are equally fluent in crypto market structure and traditional financial engineering," Joshua Lim, Arbelos Markets Co-Founder and CEO.
