New York-based DeFi infrastructure company plans to strengthen protocol security and expand its enterprise offerings.

Gauntlet Networks, a New York City-based decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure company, has raised $125 million in a Series C funding round. The investment was led by SBI Holdings USA.

The company plans to use the new capital to improve its protocol safety systems, expand its quantitative modeling infrastructure, and support wider adoption of its platform among institutional digital asset participants.

Funding to Support Platform Development

According to the company, the funding will primarily strengthen its core protocol safety engineering efforts. In addition, Gauntlet Networks intends to enhance its automated quantitative modeling capabilities, which help blockchain protocols evaluate risk and optimize operational parameters.

The investment will also support the company's commercial expansion as demand for institutional digital asset infrastructure continues to grow.

Focus on DeFi Risk Management

Founded by cofounder and CEO Tarun Chitra, Gauntlet Networks develops simulation and risk management software for decentralized finance ecosystems.

Its platform enables blockchain protocols to conduct real-time stress testing, automate protocol parameter adjustments, and identify potential economic risks before they affect network performance.

Expanding Global Operations

Besides developing its technology, Gauntlet Networks works with developer communities across global blockchain ecosystems to coordinate protocol updates and improve network resilience.

The latest funding is expected to help the company expand its engineering capabilities while supporting broader enterprise adoption of its DeFi risk management solutions.
