September 3, 2025 – Utila, the leading all-in-one digital asset operations platform for institutions, today announced the successful close of a $22 million Series A extension round. This brings its total Series A funding to $40 million and nearly triples the company’s valuation in just six months, underscoring the explosive demand for its secure and scalable infrastructure in the rapidly expanding stablecoin market.
The extension round was spearheaded by Red Dot Capital Partners, with significant participation from Nyca Partners, Wing Venture Capital, DCG, Cerca Partners, Funfair Ventures, SilverCircle, and other key investors. This latest infusion of capital boosts Utila’s total funding to over $51.5 million, reflecting the company's hypergrowth across all key metrics and its emergence as the default operating system for institutional digital asset operations.
"We’re witnessing a fundamental shift in how organizations handle value transfer, with stablecoins at the center of this transformation," said Bentzi Rabi, Co-founder and CEO of Utila. "Six months ago, we positioned ourselves for the next wave of digital asset adoption. Today, that wave has arrived, and Utila has become the essential infrastructure layer for any organization working with stablecoins – from global payment providers to stablecoin issuers to financial institutions building next-generation treasury and trading operations."
Since its initial Series A announcement in March, Utila has experienced unprecedented growth, more than doubling its customer base to over 200 global institutions. The platform now processes over $15 billion in monthly volume and has secured more than $90 billion in total transactions, solidifying its position as a critical enabler for enterprises navigating the digital asset landscape.
Atad Peled, Partner at Red Dot Capital Partners, commented on the investment: "Utila represents exactly the kind of category-defining company we look to back — one that sits at the intersection of a massive technological shift and clear enterprise demand. The stablecoin market is exploding, and organizations need enterprise-grade tools to operate safely and efficiently. Utila’s rapid growth and strong customer traction show they’ve built the platform the market truly needs."
