Prometheum Inc., a market infrastructure provider for digital assets, has secured an additional $23 million in funding from high-net-worth investors and institutions since the start of 2025. This capital infusion supports the company’s objective to build market infrastructure for U.
S. capital markets, specifically focusing on integrating digital assets into mainstream financial operations.
The new funding is allocated for Prometheum’s commercial expansion, facilitating the introduction of digital asset products, including crypto, tokenized assets, and on-chain securities, into financial markets through the U.
S. broker-dealer channel. While the company maintains a long-term focus on on-chain securities development and adoption, it is now equipped to support a broader range of digital asset offerings, addressing institutions’ demand for integrated access across various product types.
Prometheum Capital, a FINRA member and SEC-registered broker-dealer, holds authorization for digital asset custody, clearing, and settlement. It is also authorized to provide correspondent clearing services to U.
S. broker-dealers. These services enable introducing and clearing firms to offer digital assets to their clients via existing brokerage accounts. Prometheum Capital is currently in the process of onboarding its initial correspondent clearing relationships, providing a pathway for broker-dealers to engage in digital asset markets without necessitating changes to their operational or compliance frameworks.
At the product level, Prometheum is developing a pipeline of digitally-native and tokenized investment products designed to function within established U.
S. securities markets. By aligning on-chain product development with broker-dealer distribution and digital asset custody infrastructure, Prometheum aims to integrate digital assets into core market workflows, thereby accelerating the shift towards blockchain-enabled capital markets.
Aaron Kaplan, co-CEO of Prometheum Inc., stated, “Prior investment allowed us to operationalize our custodial platform and complete the foundational build-out of our infrastructure.” He added, “This funding enables us to work with more product issuers to bring on-chain securities products to market faster, while simultaneously onboarding more broker-dealers to distribute those products to mainstream investors. We’re excited to build digital markets in 2026.”
Prometheum Inc. facilitates digital assets, including crypto, tokenized securities, and digitally-native securities, through its broker-dealer network and market infrastructure for distribution, trading, and custody. Its network comprises Prometheum ATS (secondary market trading), Prometheum Capital (custody, clearing, and settlement), ProFinancial (capital formation and distribution), and Prometheum Coinery, an SEC-registered digital transfer agent.
