DigiFT Secures $25 Million to Expand On-Chain RWA Trading Platform

DigiFT, an on-chain real-world asset (RWA) trading platform, has successfully completed a strategic fundraising round, securing a total of $25 million in funding [1]. The round was led by SBI Holdings, Japan’s largest financial services company, with additional participation from Mirana Ventures, Offchain Labs (Arbitrum), Cloud Sequoia Capital, and executives from the global financial technology sector [1]. This financing round, scheduled to be finalized in August 2025, is a major milestone for the platform, reinforcing its mission to bridge traditional finance with blockchain technology through transparent and programmable on-chain asset trading.

The capital raised will be allocated to expand tokenization products, enhance RWA secondary market liquidity, explore new on-chain application scenarios, and build a compliance-focused smart contract infrastructure [1]. DigiFT’s gas-free on-chain trading model differentiates it in the competitive RWA space, offering a streamlined and cost-effective solution for institutional and individual investors seeking to engage with tokenized assets.

SBI Holdings’ involvement is seen as a significant endorsement of the RWA tokenization trend. The Japanese financial giant brings not only substantial financial resources but also extensive industry relationships that could accelerate DigiFT’s global footprint [1]. As institutional interest in digital asset infrastructure continues to grow, such partnerships are expected to play a crucial role in legitimizing on-chain asset trading as a viable alternative to traditional markets.

Industry analysts observe that the $25 million funding round aligns with the broader movement toward blockchain-based asset tokenization. By enabling cross-border participation and increasing capital efficiency, platforms like DigiFT are helping to redefine how real-world assets are issued, traded, and managed. This development is likely to encourage more institutional players to enter the space, confident in the security, transparency, and programmability offered by blockchain technology [2].

DigiFT’s expansion comes at a time when tokenized assets are gaining momentum across global markets. The platform’s ability to facilitate seamless and secure trading mechanisms positions it as a potential leader in the evolving RWA ecosystem. With this latest funding, DigiFT is expected to accelerate innovation, including the expansion of supported asset classes and improvements in user experience.

The announcement highlights the increasing convergence between traditional finance and blockchain, with RWA serving as a key bridge between the two. As investors and issuers explore more opportunities to tokenize and trade real-world assets on-chain, DigiFT is well positioned to contribute to the ongoing transformation of financial markets.
