Gauntlet secured SBI’s $125 million—Japan is basically making crypto a national strategyI’m seriously going crazy!! Girls, look at the latest funding data. Gauntlet, a team that does DeFi asset management and risk analytics, just received an investment of $125 million from Japan’s SBI Holdings. $125 million! Not $12.5 million. It’s dollars, not yen. Who is SBI? One of Japan’s largest financial groups, with a brokerage, a bank, and an insurance business under its umbrella. This isn’t the kind of tentative little investment to test the waters—it’s an all-in. In the same week, there were also three big financing rounds: EDX Markets raised $76 million for its Series C (SBI also participated as an investor), KOR Protocol secured $7.5 million for on-chain settlement, and QIZ Security raised $17 million for a post-quantum cryptography platform.

$GAUNTLET RAISES $125M FROM SBI HOLDINGS – BULLISH FOR $DEFI 🚀 This is a massive signal. Gauntlet, the DeFi risk management firm, just closed its largest round ever at $125M led by Japanese financial group SBI Holdings. That’s over 5x their Series B valuation bump — and Apollo, Coinbase, and Circle are already clients. Institutional money is treating DeFi like a serious asset class. When a top-tier financial group backs infrastructure like this, the entire ecosystem feels it. What’s your next move — stacking blue chips or hunting newer plays? Not financial advice.

Gauntlet Network Gains Fresh Capital Support For those who have been paying attention to the on-chain risk management space, you may want to take a look at Gauntlet this time. As a simulation platform focused on financial modeling for blockchain protocols and applications, it serves nearly all of the core lending, stablecoin, and derivatives protocols in DeFi. By running stress tests and optimizing parameters, it helps protocols maintain solvency under extreme market conditions. The latest round of financing raised $12.5 million, with participation from SBI Holdings. The entry of a Japan-based player, to some extent, signals growing recognition from traditional financial institutions for “on-chain risk quantification.” This adds another piece to the narrative of compliance and institutionalization. After the market has been repeatedly educated by liquidations and de-peg events, the value of risk control infrastructure can only be reassessed upward. Players like Gauntlet—often the behind-the-scenes support—are roles that tend to be overlooked in bull markets, but appreciated in bear markets. #DeFi #RiskManagement #Gauntlet

Gauntlet Network Gains Fresh Capital Endorsement Again A platform dedicated to financial modeling and simulation for blockchain protocols and applications. It helps DeFi projects pressure-test parameters before launch, optimize risk and incentive structures, and serves as a key piece of infrastructure in on-chain financial engineering. In this round, the investment was co-led by SBI Holdings, with total funding of $12.5 million. The entry of traditional financial giants indicates that institutional attention to the “on-chain risk management” hidden track is increasing— the more complex a protocol is, the greater the value of parameter tuning. Highlights: - Clients include leading lending and derivatives protocols, placing it in the role of a “shovel seller” - Capital from Japanese conglomerates may accelerate compliance and expansion across Asia-Pacific - Risk modeling is a prerequisite for DeFi to become institutionalized For everyday users, this kind of infrastructure determines whether the liquidation thresholds and interest rate curves of the protocols you use are reasonable—so it’s worth keeping an eye on. #DeFi #RiskManagement #Gauntlet

The shift from advisor to direct capital allocator is a structural change in how DeFi risk is managed.

GAUNTLET RAISES $125M TO BUILD DEFI'S RISK INFRASTRUCTURE 💎 If you're betting on institutional money flowing into DeFi, Gauntlet is the plumbing making it possible. They just closed a $125M Series C led by SBI Holdings — a Japanese financial giant with banking, securities, and crypto arms. That's not just a funding round, it's a signal. Gauntlet now manages over $1.6B across vaults on Morpho, Kamino, and others. They're moving beyond advisory into direct capital allocation. The play? Tokenized real-world assets, non-USD stablecoins, and multi-chain strategies. This is the kind of infrastructure that lets pension funds sleep at night while earning yield on-chain. Do you see institutional DeFi as the next narrative, or is it still too early? Not financial advice. Always manage your risk. #DEFI #Institutional #Gauntlet #DeFiInfrastructure #Crypto 💎

I deposited USDC into a Morpho vault expecting to earn a few percent in yield. But after a few months liquidity vanished from that Morpho vault.  Depositors were left with frozen funds and no direct support. I lost 50% of my principal. That's not yield. That's financial robbery. I wasn't trading leveraged positions. I wasn't gambling on meme coins. I supplied USDC to the Extrafi XLend USDC Vault on Morpho, curated by Gauntlet, expecting professional risk management. Then the Resolv (USR) exploit happened. The response? - Morpho says it's the curator's responsibility. - Extrafi says it's Gauntlet's responsibility. - Gauntlet is unreachable only through posts updates on X. After weeks of uncertainty, the "remediation" allows me to claim only around 50% of my original deposit through Merkl. So let me get this straight: I deposited USDC to earn yield and after one year of "professional risk management" I can withdraw only 50%. Morpho promotes permissionless lending. Gauntlet promotes sophisticated risk management. Resolv promoted USR. Yet when everything went wrong, the people who actually lost money were the depositors. No one should deposit into a yield vault expecting to wake up with half their savings gone because of risks they neither selected nor controlled. I hope Morpho, Gauntlet, Extrafi and Resolv continue pursuing every possible recovery avenue and provide full transparency until affected users are made whole. If you were affected by the USR exploit or the affected Morpho vaults, share your experience. The DeFi community deserves better accountability than "sorry, there's no liquidity." #Morpho #Gauntlet #Resolv #DeFi: #USDC
