Chaos Labs, a blockchain risk management platform, has raised $55 million in Series A funding led by Haun Ventures, which includes new investors F-Prime Capital, Slow Ventures, and Spartan Capital. The company has raised $70 million to date.
Chaos Labs was founded in 2021 by CEO Omer Goldberg and employs 29 people, most of whom are based in its Tel Aviv R&D center, with offices in New York. The company said its technology has generated $765 billion in cumulative trading volume, $25 billion in loans and $35 million in incentives.
Other investors in the round included Lightspeed Venture Partners, Galaxy Ventures, Wintermute Ventures, PayPal Ventures, General Catalyst, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Coinbase Ventures. Angel investors also participated, including OpenAI COO Kevin Weil, Fireblocks CEO Michael Shaulov, Solana CEO Anatoly Yakovenko, Phantom CTO Francesco Agosti, and Talos CEO Anton Katz.
Chaos Labs’ platform provides comprehensive economic security for crypto protocols through advanced monitoring, real-time simulations, and innovative risk oracles. Chaos Labs enables protocols to verify stability in all market conditions, merging off-chain observability with on-chain risk parameter adjustments. This allows DeFi applications to instantly adapt to market volatility, allowing teams to monitor health, execute proactive changes, protect user funds, and optimize capital efficiency.
Decentralized financial applications currently rely on manual analysis and adjustment of risk parameters to ensure performance in variable market conditions. In comparison, centralized exchanges, including the Chicago Options Exchange, use risk engines built directly on market data feeds.
For Chaos Labs, this growth is part of a broader vision to empower decentralized applications with contextualized data to improve risk management and economic security, increase capital efficiency, and achieve performance parity with their centralized counterparts. The company will use the investment funds to accelerate the development of its industry-leading risk management platform, which includes enhanced observability tools, innovative risk oracles, and real-time parameter recommendations.
Rapid growth combined with strong demand from customers around the world validated the team’s thesis that data needs are becoming increasingly sophisticated as financial activity in the blockchain world grows and approaches the trading volumes and liquidity levels of the traditional financial world. This growth requires a dynamic and advanced data infrastructure.
“Cryptocurrencies are among the most volatile asset classes today. Yet most DeFi applications remain static, relying on outdated parameters that take hours or days to update. The future of decentralized finance requires a modern, dynamic data infrastructure,” said Omer Goldberg, Founder and CEO of Chaos Labs. “Market context, including volatility, liquidity depth, and bid-ask spread, is critical for real-time adjustments in high-frequency trading applications.”
