YZi Labs has participated in Digital Asset’s $135 million Series E funding round, joining established financial institutions such as Goldman Sachs, Citadel Securities, and DTCC. The investment supports Digital Asset’s development of enterprise-grade tools for regulated markets and underlines YZi Labs’ commitment to enhancing infrastructure for institutional blockchain adoption, particularly in mature markets like the U.S.

Digital Asset is the developer of the Canton Network, a public Layer 1 blockchain designed with configurable on-chain privacy. As of June 2025, Canton supports tokenised real-world assets with a TVL in the trillions, including over $1.5 trillion in monthly U.S. Treasury repo activity. The network includes nearly 400 participants and addresses key barriers to blockchain use by regulated financial institutions. The funding will aid in expanding Canton’s infrastructure, accelerating onboarding, and enabling broader interoperability across global markets.
