Hex Trust, a Hong Kong-based provider of digital asset custody services, has secured US$88 million in a Series B investment round headed by Liberty City Ventures and Animoca Brands. According to Bloomberg, the investment raises Hex Trust’s capitalization to US$300 million, a 10x increase in a year’s time. Ripple, Morgan Creek, Terra, Primavera Venture Partners, and entrepreneur Adrian Cheng were among the round’s investors.

The Funding Round of Hex Trust

Hex Trust, founded in 2018, by Alessio Quaglini, Marc Amez-Droz, and Rafal Czerniawski is best known for its proprietary bank-grade platform, Hex Safe.
