Gate Ventures, the venture capital arm of Gate.io, focused on investments in decentralized infrastructure, ecosystems, and applications that will reshape the world in the digital age, is participating in Oasis Pro Inc’s $27 Million Series A financing round along with UDHC, Blizzard, the Avalanche Fund, Mirae Asset Venture Investment, and others.
This financing will be used to fuel Oasis Pro Inc’s continued growth by building out the senior management team, expanding global business development, scaling the technology platform globally through new revenue streams, and adding complementary blockchain technologies.
Oasis Pro’s subsidiary, Oasis Pro Markets, which is a U.S. regulated multi-asset Alternative Trading System (“ATS”) for digital assets and a full-service investment bank, will also benefit as this funding will accelerate Oasis Pro Market’s Digital Asset Security ATS platform, global expansion and full-service investment banking advisory practice.
Founded by seasoned Wall Street and blockchain veterans, Oasis Pro Inc. will continue to grow as a leading fintech and blockchain company with a mission to bridge the world of traditional finance, blockchain and DeFi. Oasis Pro will leverage and bring DeFi to the mainstream to pursue their vision of a world where DeFi is not competing against TradFi, but rather DeFi acts as a complementary extension of TradFi.
Oasis Pro Markets’ ATS, OATSPRO, enables issuers and subscribers to buy, sell, and offer a range of alternative assets in the secondary market in a convenient and secure manner. Oasis Pro Markets’ proprietary technology provides a sleek, user-friendly experience for issuers and investors.
OATSPRO offers efficient KYC/AML onboarding of digital securities for issuers, allows for streamlined onboarding of investors, and provides a liquidity platform for private and public OTC market digital securities.
Kevin Yang, Investment Director of Gate Ventures, said: “Through the investment in Oasis Pro, Gate Ventures will continue to explore DeFi opportunities integrated with compliance to tackle the increasing regulatory uncertainty. Given the increasing number of crypto-native DeFi applications expanding to the TradFi markets, we have foreseen the necessity of compliance and the co-existence of permissionless DeFi and compliant DeFi in the near future. And a trusted relationship between Oasis Pro and Gate Ventures is certainly a vital step toward a compliant environment for open finance.”
