Cross-Asset Trading Platform Liquid Raises $18 Million in Seed Funding

Liquid focuses on cross-asset trading, bringing cryptocurrencies together with traditional markets such as equities and foreign exchange on a single platform. It offers more than 500 markets, round-the-clock trading throughout the year and non-custodial tools. The model reflects investor demand for real-time access across markets while challenging traditional finance’s trading-hour constraints.

Liquid announced an $18 million seed funding round led by Neo and Left Lane Capital on July 20, 2026. The new capital will be used to expand its cross-asset trading services. The platform also integrates an AI assistant to help users analyze market information, while allowing them to retain control of their assets and reduce custodial risk.
