BlockBeats News, December 3rd, according to Fortune report, decentralized exchange platform Ostium has completed a $20 million Series A funding round, led by venture capital firm General Catalyst and the crypto arm of quant trading company Jump Trading. Other participants include Coinbase Ventures, Wintermute, and GSR.

Sources familiar with the matter revealed that this funding round values Ostium at around $2.5 billion. Ostium had previously raised approximately $8 million in funding. Ostium was founded in 2022 by co-founders and CEOs Kaledora Kiernan-Linn and Marco Antonio Ribeiro.

The platform plans to use the new funds to expand into non-crypto user markets outside the U.S.
