Midas said it raised $50 million to address a persistent pain point for onchain yield investors: liquidity.
The firm, which turns institutional return strategies into blockchain-based tokens, closed a Series A funding round led by RRE and Creandum, with backing from firms including Framework Ventures, Franklin Templeton and Coinbase Ventures.
The increase comes as institutions explore tokenized portfolios, where liquidity and settlement speed still limit wider adoption. Many tokenized investment products work through vault-like structures that use user funds for strategies such as lending or dividend farming across DeFi protocols. While they can generate steady returns, they often lock up capital, forcing investors to wait for redemptions.
Midas will use the new funding to build and roll out a system that allows users to exit positions instantly instead of waiting for days.
The feature, called Midas Staked Liquidity (MSL), aims to end withdrawal delays with a separate liquidity layer that sits alongside its products. Instead of liquidating positions every time an investor exits the system, the system uses pre-allocated capital to meet payouts as needed.
“This raise gives us the capital to scale the infrastructure behind it, enabling instant redemptions, deeper liquidity and broader strategy access without sacrificing transparency or yield,” said co-founder and CEO Dennis Dinkelmeyer.
Since its inception in 2024, Midas said it issued $1.7 billion in tokenized assets and distributed $37 million in dividends to investors.
