Sentora, a new DEFI institutional platform, was officially launched following the merger of Intotheblock and Trident Digital.
The combined entity made its debut with 25 million dollars in series A series financing, led by New Form Capital with the participation of Tribe Capital, Ripple and others. The initiative brings together more than $ 3 billion in deployments of previous institutional challenges under a single brand aimed at meeting the growing demand for regulated access and managed by the risk to decentralized finance.
The merger unites the risk analysis and risk management technology of intotheblock with the experience of Trident in structured liquidity programs.
Sentora will offer a complete solution that includes yield strategies, structured loans, capital training and real -time risk dashboards. Designed with a “understood-premier” approach, the platform incorporates the KYC and AML processes as regulatory executives for the pressure of institutional actors to meet higher standards.
Sentora emerges while Mica regulations are starting to reshape the European cryptography market and global institutions are expanding exposure to digital assets.
Anthony Demartino, CEO of Sentora and co-founder of Trident Digital, described the platform as an answer to the increase in institutional expectations. “DEFI is the future of finance, but this future must be built with the needs of institutions,” he said in a statement. Jesús Rodríguez, CTO and ancient CEO of Intotheblock, noted that Sentora reflects a natural evolution of their data -based ethics.
The merger occurs in the middle of broader changes in decentralized finance. Meanwhile, the total locked value of DEFI (TVL) oscillates approximately $ 100 billion. The emphasis on Sentora on risk dashboards and structured liquidity tools is positioned as a counterpoint to concerns concerning DEFI exploits, in particular while traditional financial institutions are looking for safer entry points in the sector.
The competitive landscape evolves in parallel with these trends. Solutions like Aave Arc, Maple Finance and Blackrock’s Buidl Fund have already targeted regulated chain products. Sentora’s offer aims to differentiate itself by combining robust risk management and compliance protocols with a unified institutional quality defi battery.
Despite the momentum, regulatory clarity remains a global variable. Sentora recording in the British Virgin Islands can draw a meticulous examination from the American and EU, and details on the protocols taken care of and the daycare solutions must still be disclosed. The questions also persist regarding audit status and intelligent contractual insurance coverage.
For the moment, the beginnings of Sentora reflect the growing convergence of traditional finances and the challenge. Supported by capital and built on proven infrastructure, the platform is positioned at the intersection of compliant access and a decentralized opportunity.
