Liquid, a cryptocurrency derivatives trading platform, has successfully raised $18 million in a Series A funding round. According to Foresight News, the round was co-led by Neo and Left Lane Capital, with participation from Haun Ventures, K5 Global, SV Angel, AntiFund, and Sunflower Capital. Previously, Liquid completed a $7.6 million seed funding round led by Paradigm.
Founded by Franklyn Wang, a former quantitative researcher at Two Sigma and a Harvard graduate, Liquid initially operated as a perpetual contract aggregation platform. It has since expanded its offerings to include multi-asset trading across stocks, forex, commodities, and prediction markets. The platform supports leverage up to 200x and integrates various asset trades, including positions from Polymarket.
