Robinhood CEO backs AI data startup Dataline in $10.6M seed Dataline scores crypto data for AI agents on how reliable, recent and consistent it is. It now has a seed round behind that idea, and a public token sale still ahead. Co-founder Nuo Shi, quoted by The Block: "a stablecoin priced at $0.97 could be a bargain or the start of a depeg" From @DatalineAI's own post on 21 Oct and its site: • About 50 data sources live • Hyperliquid, Polymarket and Kalshi among the venues it covers • The public sale is planned on Uniswap's auction system The seed closed in April 2026 and was announced Wed 21 Oct 2026, per The Block, on a SAFE with a token warrant. • Samsung-backed Dispersion Capital and Lattice co-led • Symbolic Capital, @cbventures and Anagram took part • So did Robinhood co-founder and CEO Vlad Tenev The company was called Tearline until May 2026, per Dealroom, so the round had closed before the name changed. 6 months between closing a round and announcing it is a long quiet. The token sale is the obvious reason to break it, though nobody has said so. The $10.6M seed and the funds behind it Learn more 👇 naut.so/projects/dataline

Pantera leads $10M to cut the 200-day wait to sell a fund stake For a fee, Fission lets a holder sell a tokenized fund stake now, before the fund's next redemption window. Jonathan Shaffer, co-founder and CEO of @FissionXYZ, told Fortune on 15 Oct: "It would take you normally about 200 days to sell [a] product. For a fee, you can sell it right now and get your money back, and this will settle... in 90 seconds or less." The round was announced 15 Oct 2026, and per Fortune it closed in September 2026: • $10M Series A, no valuation disclosed • @PanteraCapital led • Circle Ventures and Borderless Capital joined • The CEO of one of the largest market makers on the NYSE put money in personally Anthony Scaramucci was already there, backing the $1.6M pre-seed in October 2024, and this round is more than 6x the size. Franklin Bi, a general partner at Pantera, told Fortune the "post-tokenization problem" is one "almost nobody is focused on". The fee for a fast exit is the business, and it lasts while the 200-day wait does. The round and every backer are on NAUT. Learn more 👇 naut.so/projects/fission-lab…

Marc Ryan, co-founder and CEO, in the 15 Oct release: "Borrowing against your own portfolio has always been a product for people who already had a private banker." What @SpoutFi is building: • Deposit tokenized US equities, borrow stablecoins at 0% interest • Up to 50% of the locked collateral value, per its own docs • Lenders are paid from call options sold each week on that stock On 15 Oct 2026 Spout disclosed a $2M strategic round. • Strategic backing from @solanalabs • Draper Dragon, Anchorage Digital and Flow Traders are in • So are Solayer, Vessel Capital, Taisu Ventures and Bering Waters, among others The angels stand out. Among them, Solana Labs co-founders Anatoly Yakovenko and Raj Gokal put in personally, beside Injective co-founder and CEO Eric Chen, a Superstate co-founder, and J. Christopher Giancarlo, the 13th chairman of the US CFTC, who is also Spout's regulatory and policy advisor.

Polychain leads Multiliquid seed, total funding now $8M Tokenized funds from Wellington Management and VanEck already swap on @multiliquid_xyz. Will Beeson, founder and CEO: "Tokenization only matters if the assets are actually liquid." Where it stands: • More than $20M in live liquidity, per Multiliquid • On Ethereum since Dec 2025, Solana since Feb 2026 • 5 employees as of Oct 15, per The Block • No token, and no valuation disclosed The seed was disclosed on Oct 15 and @polychain led it. • Circle Ventures, CMT Digital, Metalayer Ventures, Generative Ventures and Strobe Ventures joined • $8M is the total, a 2025 pre-seed included Before this, Beeson was Chief Product Officer at Standard Chartered's tokenization platform. That platform put the Wellington ULTRA treasury fund on chain. ULTRA is on Multiliquid's swap list today. Olaf Carlson-Wee, who founded Polychain: "liquidity remains the bottleneck." Beeson helped move those funds on chain. Now he charges basis points to swap holders out of them. The liquidity layer was always the better business...

Perps teams take $40.5M of $48.2M disclosed DeFi funding 7 of the 15 DeFi rounds announced from Jul 21 to Oct 19 went to perps teams. That is 7 newly funded perps teams for a market maker, auditor or listings desk to pitch. The biggest round went to new markets. @entropyIO raised $14M on Aug 24, led by @RibbitCapital to list perps on pre-IPO shares like Anthropic, plus equities and commodities, on Hyperliquid. The other perps rounds: • Vest Exchange: $13M seed, Portal Ventures led (Oct 7) • Antarctic: $7M (Sep 7) • PERPTools: $5M seed (Oct 1) • Imperial: $1.5M seed, Foundation Capital led (Oct 6) • HertzFlow and XStable did not disclose Across all 15 rounds, at least $48.2M was disclosed. Lending, yield and a prediction market shared the rest, at least $7.7M. Only 7 rounds named a lead, 8 firms in all, and none led twice. 2Square backed 3 of the 15, more than any other firm, and none of them perps. The money is following new things to trade. Stocks, FX and pre-IPO shares on a perps exchange look like the next fight... All 15 rounds, who led each, and the teams behind them, in the DeFi funding report on NAUT: naut.so/articles/defi-fundin…
