Summary
Incrypted's editorial team tracked nine investment deals between November 7 and 14, 2026. Five companies disclosed amounts totaling about $133 million, with the recorded activity spanning venture rounds, M&A transactions, and other capital-raising formats.
The largest disclosed round was a $50 million seed round for Index Industries, led by Lightspeed Venture Partners with participation from Polychain Capital, Galaxy Ventures, Wintermute Ventures and other institutional investors. The company is building infrastructure to make US residential real estate an accessible investment asset class, combining a home price index with daily reporting and tokenization tools. Alta, a developer of a blockchain for international payments, raised a $47.5 million Series A led by Index Ventures, with participation from GV, Blackbird Ventures, Square Peg and Capital49. Its total funding now stands at $80 million. Griffin, a UK bank, raised $20 million in a Series B led by Octagon Partners, valuing the company at more than $100 million; proceeds will fund stablecoin reserve services and cross-border onchain payments. Marble, a fintech company, announced its launch with an $11 million seed round led by Polychain Capital, and is developing Marble Compute, private credit infrastructure for AI compute, and Marble Markets, a trading platform for digital and real-world assets. Seva Money closed a $5 million pre-seed round led by Blockwell and Revent, with Seedcamp participating, to connect money transfer operators to financial services.
Several additional projects reported capital raises without disclosing amounts. LitVM announced a strategic investment in Lithium, a non-custodial lending protocol on its network that allows USDC lending and tokenized LTC collateral. Ondo invested in Spout, a Solana lending platform where tokenized stocks serve as collateral for USDC loans, with lender yield generated from covered call premiums. Asset manager Kailash raised a seed round led by UTXO Management to bring real-world assets and traditional strategies onchain.
On the M&A front, Securitize, a real-world asset tokenization company, signed a definitive agreement to acquire River One, an institutional asset-backed finance platform. The deal, with undisclosed financial terms, is expected to let Securitize finance tokenized assets through collateralized lending. Corporate placements and DAO or ecosystem funding were inactive during the period, and no token sales were observed. Blockwall and Polychain Capital were the most active investors, each backing two startups. Incrypted characterized investor focus as concentrated on the CeFi sector and blockchain services development.
