UTILA是用於數字資產運營的機構級平台，今天宣布了由NYCA Partners領導的1800萬美元系列資金回合。

"We are impressed with the early insight Utila’s founders had into these market developments and the new institutional-grade tools that would be required as digital assets become mainstream," said Hans Morris, Managing Partner at Nyca. "They also have the expertise to execute on this vision and have quickly gained significant market traction. All these factors make Utila the type of exciting, breakthrough investment opportunity we target."

The growth of stablecoins is rapidly shifting the digital asset industry from speculative trading to operational use cases. In 2024, stablecoin transfers reached $27.6 trillion, surpassing Visa and Mastercard’s combined transaction volume according to a report by CEX.IO. And the payments industry is responding with strategic initiatives, such as Stripe’s recent $1.1 billion acquisition of stablecoin platform Bridge.

Stablecoins的增長正在迅速將數字資產行業從投機交易轉移到運營用例。根據Cex.io的一份報告，2024年，Stablecoin轉讓達到27.6萬億美元，超過Visa和Mastercard的合併交易量。付款行業正在以戰略計劃做出響應，例如Stripe最近收購Stablecoin Platform Bridge的11億美元。

These changes highlight the increasing adoption of blockchain-based transactions by institutions, bringing with it the demand for enterprise-grade, secure and high-speed operational platforms like Utila.

這些變化強調了機構對基於區塊鏈的交易的越來越多，這帶來了對Utila等企業級，安全和高速運營平台的需求。

And by focusing on the next wave of digital asset adoption and enabling businesses to move value seamlessly, these fast-moving market trends position Utila for rapid growth.

"Utila’s mission is to be the leading institutional-grade wallet for this new era, which requires an entirely new set of product capabilities such as efficient gas management, scalable APIs, deep support for smart contract interactions and connectivity to banking rails," said Bentzi Rabi, Co-founder and CEO of Utila. "Organizations don’t have many options today. They’re mostly stuck between ‘old-generation’ institutional wallets that are inflexible and lack relevant product offerings, or ‘simple’ wallets that are not institutional-grade. We provide the ultimate platform for on-chain operations with the highest security standards in the market."

Bentzi Rabi說：“ Utila的使命是成為這個新時代的領先機構錢包，它需要一套全新的產品功能，例如高效的天然氣管理，可擴展的API，對智能合約互動的深厚支持以及與銀行軌道的連接性，” Upitila的聯合創始人和CEO Bentzi Rabi說。 “今天的組織沒有太多選擇。它們大多在'老一代'機構錢包之間存在，這些機構錢包不靈活且缺乏相關產品，或者不是機構級的'簡單'錢包。我們為具有最高安全標準的鍊鍊運營提供了最終的平台。”

"Organizations like ours that are managing digital asset investments need the operational ability to engage across multiple blockchains in a secure and scalable way," said Wesley Hansen, Head of Trading & Operations at Arca, one of the many customers of Utila. "Utila has added a new dynamic to how we manage our digital asset operations, striking a balance between security, efficiency and ease of use."
