Superstate, a fintech company, has recently attracted attention with its latest funding round. According to news on January 22, the company just completed a Series B funding of $82.5 million, led jointly by Bain Capital Crypto and Distributed Global, with participation from Haun Ventures, Brevan Howard Digital, Galaxy Digital, and other institutions, bringing total disclosed funding to over $100 million.

Where is this funding going? Primarily to upgrade the Opening Bell blockchain IPO issuance platform. Superstate plans to expand its issuance layers on the Ethereum and Solana public blockchains, with the core goal of advancing on-chain issuance and trading processes for SEC-registered stocks—essentially, making the traditional process of going public and raising capital faster and simpler on the blockchain.

Operationally, the company currently manages assets exceeding $1.23 billion and operates two tokenized funds. As an SEC-registered transfer agent, Superstate has helped multiple companies complete stock tokenization through its platform. This exploration into on-chain assets and financial infrastructure development is considered a significant attempt by Web3 to integrate into real-world financial scenarios.

The on-chain integration of traditional finance is really coming. --- $1.23 billion in assets under management... that number looks very impressive. --- It's Bain Capital and Galaxy Digital again; this lineup is indeed strong. But how many of these can actually succeed? --- With the Opening Bell platform upgrade, it seems we'll have to wait and see how it actually performs next time. --- SEC registering stock on-chain trading—if this really happens, how many people's jobs will it change? --- By the way, why does it always seem like these financing news come twice as fast as actual product implementation? --- For Web3 financial infrastructure, raising funds isn't enough; it also depends on how regulators respond. --- With $82.5 million invested, it all depends on whether Opening Bell can truly simplify the listing process.

Another new project to harvest retail investors again. Can they really deliver with such a large amount of funding?

82.5 million? This fundraising scale is quite interesting. --- Can Opening Bell really get things done? I need to see the follow-up. --- 12.3 billion AUM now, this is truly serious infrastructure. --- It's ETH and Solana again. When will other public chains get their turn? --- SEC registering stocks on the chain... Just hearing about it makes me think regulation will be a hassle. --- Tokenized fund operations are underway, which is much more reliable than pure speculation. --- Over 100 million in funding, can it finally be implemented this time? --- Traditional finance going on-chain, finally serious big capital is involved. --- Bain Capital Crypto bets 82.5 million, indicating Wall Street is serious. --- Stock tokenization sounds great, but can it really work?

Once again, liquidation is imminent. Is it the turn of traditional finance to go on-chain this time? 1.23 billion AUM sounds impressive, but I want to know more about how this system's collateralization ratio is set up. Otherwise, it could end up being a liquidation feast again. Stock tokenization sounds good, but if the risk control points are not properly managed, it will still result in a margin call. A painful lesson, brothers.
