Midas, a leading platform for composable onchain investment products, announced on March 30, 2026 that it has raised $50 million in a Series A funding round. The round was led by RRE Ventures and Creandum, with participation from prominent investors including Framework Ventures, HV Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Franklin Templeton, GSR Ventures and others. This funding comes at a time when Midas has shown strong traction in the tokenized Real-World Assets (RWA) sector. The company enables strategy managers to convert institutional-grade investment strategies into regulatory-compliant tokens called mTokens. These mTokens offer on-chain transparency, instant redemptions, and composability across various DeFi protocols.
Funding Overview
- Round: Series A
- Amount: $50 million
- Announcement Date: March 30, 2026

- Key Participants: Framework Ventures, HV Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Franklin Templeton, GSR Ventures and others
Alongside the funding announcement, Midas is launching Midas Staked Liquidity (MSL), an instant redemption facility backed by investment-grade strategies such as U.S. Treasury bills and prime lending markets. MSL has an initial capacity of up to $40 million and is designed to provide deep, atomic liquidity without introducing settlement risk or cash drag. It acts as a dedicated on-chain liquidity layer that supports instant redemptions across all Midas mTokens while still generating base yield for liquidity providers.
About the Company
Midas was founded in 2024 by Dennis Dinkelmeyer, formerly of Goldman Sachs and Capital Group, Fabrice Grinda, and Romain Bourgois, formerly of Ondo Finance. The platform focuses on bridging traditional institutional finance with DeFi by tokenizing high-quality strategies into composable ERC-20 tokens.
The company uses its proprietary Midas Attestation Engine to deliver real-time on-chain Proof of Reserve, Net Asset Value (NAV), and price updates.
Midas has also received regulatory approval in Europe to offer tokenized assets to retail investors.

Market Context
Midas operates in the fast-growing tokenized Real-World Assets sector within DeFi. The broader RWA market has expanded significantly, with tokenized assets excluding stablecoins reaching tens of billions in on-chain value by late 2025. Traditional challenges in this space include slow liquidity, delayed settlements, and limited composability. Midas aims to address these by enabling instant redemptions and seamless integration with DeFi protocols. This allows mTokens to be used as collateral, for leverage, or in yield strategies across chains.
The launch of MSL further strengthens this approach by creating an open liquidity architecture that can scale alongside the growth of tokenized assets, which analysts expect to expand significantly in the coming years.
