Metafyed, a trading platform dedicated to private lending and RWAs, announced it has secured $5.5 million in funding. This round was led by Block Tides, Positive Venture DAO, Omni Chain Ventures, Chain Valley Capital, and Zero 2 Launch. Metafyed also received incubation and support from Hong Kong Cyberport, Draper, and the Stellar Development Foundation.

The new funds will be used to expand the Southeast Asian SME project market and pipeline, strengthen compliance and licensing partnerships in key jurisdictions, and enhance product functionality (including investor deposit and withdrawal integration and AI-based risk scoring).

Metafyed is building a global marketplace for tokenized private lending and asset-backed investments, initially focusing on small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) across Asia.
