Digital securities startup Securitize has raised $12.75 million in a Series A funding round led by Blockchain Capital and also including Coinbase Ventures, Global Brain, NXTP, OK Blockchain Capital, and Xpring at Ripple.

“We’re very excited to have assembled such a highly experienced and credible group of strategic partners. Not only will they provide support for Securitize as we continue to execute at the highest level of our industry, but they will also be instrumental as we prepare to tokenize Securitize for our Digital Securities Offering,” says Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize.

Blockchain Capital Co-founder and Managing Partner, Brad Stephens, will be joining the venture’s Board of Directors.

“Their real-time compliance solution solved a critical need for our BCAP security token. I am excited to be both a client and an investor, and help them lead the emergence of the security token industry,” he says.
