1/ We’re thrilled to announce that August has raised a $10M Series A to continue bringing institutions on-chain 🎉 The round was led by @dragonfly_xyz with participation from @6thManVentures, @robotventures, @ForesightVen, SCB Ltd, @Maven11Capital, @fintech_io and several high profile angels. Read the full story at @FortuneMagazine fortune.com/crypto/2025/03… 2/ With over $7B in monthly volume and $400M in loans originated last year, August provides institutions, protocols, and OTC desks with a comprehensive suite of on-chain financial tools including: smart contract accounts, trade execution algos, borrowing/lending, options and structured products, tri-party collateral management, cross-margining and cross-chain DeFi strategies. 3/ Despite five years of innovation, DeFi is still out of touch with the institutional experience. Collateral is isolated per chain with no cross margining between CeFi and DeFi positions. August’s infrastructure enables portfolio margining across all crypto markets, both cross-chain and off-chain. Institutions can LP into a Uniswap pool on Base, while using this position as collateral to tap into CeFi liquidity directly to hedge the impermanent loss, borrow stables on Arbitrum to trade on Hyperliquid, or write OTC options to generate yield. 4/ Putting on a multi-step position on-chain still takes institutions in the order of hours between approvals and multi-sigs. August abstracts this complexity away and makes it 1-click, with automated post-trade monitoring. 5/ With over $200B in stablecoin market cap, and companies filing to bring equities on-chain - it's only a matter of time before the $30T equities market & $18T OTC derivatives market also get tokenized. August is best positioned to facilitate that wave in the most capital efficient manner. We're excited to continue scaling towards a future that is chain-abstracted, portfolio-margined and 1-click.

August@august_digital·
Today, we are launching @upshift_fi, the first dApp powered by August - democratizing access to institutional yield. August has spent the last 2 years building the leading DeFi brokerage for institutions. As DeFi became more complex to manage for every day users, it is now apparent that the next step change to bring assets on-chain will be using professionally curated vaults. Upshift enables two things: 1. Users get access to products that are otherwise reserved to institutions 2. Asset issuers – stablecoins in particular – can leverage Upshift's composable vault toolkit to offer yield-bearing products to their users. Our mission is to migrate the piping of financial markets on-chain. We aim to build an entire ecosystem on top of August. Upshift is just the start. Yield is the Trojan Horse. Read more below:
Upshift@upshift_fi

Introducing Upshift. Institutions, stablecoins and tokenized assets are bringing trillions onchain. Trillions need yield.

August 🤝 @ForesightVen Delighted to partner with the Foresight Team to continue bringing institutions on-chain. Their team gets it. “The potential of the intersection of TradFi capital optimization, DeFi, OTC, and algorithmic swaps in particular, is promising, and we believe the August team has the right zeal to capture more market share. With the United States at the forefront, global sentiment is increasingly favorable towards crypto, presenting a market opportunity that August can leverage with the new funding," Forest Bai, Co-Founder @ Foresight. theblock.co/post/345671/fo…

Proud supporter of Alex and Aya since day 1. Talented people deserve good things, and watching them turn their vision into reality has been nothing short of inspiring. Their drive and dedication are unmatched and I’m even more excited for what’s to come, as they establish themselves as the best in class onchain platform for institutions.

Institutions aren’t just coming on-chain, they are here – the TRUMP token proved you can no longer run a CEX only strategy. With the outperformance of DeFi since FTX, the total volume of crypto trading on DEXs ticked up to as high as 20% in Jan of this year. And to date, most institutions have had to build their own, custom tooling for their DeFi strategies – that is not scalable. That’s why we invested August, the only team and product that has been able to serve the full stack of tooling needs of institutions that are coming on-chain, while being interoperable with a range of other service providers. @AElkrief and @aya_kantor's combined experience of being deep DeFi traders themselves, while also building the largest institutional liquidity provider at FalconX, makes them the right people at the right time to bring part of the market mainstream. We’re excited to have led their Series A and for the coming on-chain future.
