Toronto, Canada, January 16th, 2025, Chainwire

Torram, a Web2.5 infrastructure company, has announced the successful closure of its $710,000 pre-seed funding round in early December 2024. The company is focused on developing institutional-grade decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure directly on Bitcoin , positioning itself as a key enabler of innovation in the evolving financial ecosystem.

The funding round included participation from prominent investors such as Draper Associates, Blockchain Founders Fund, Boost VC, Side Door Ventures, Deep Ventures, MH Ventures, Silvermine Capital, and Trive Digital.

“This oversubscribed round is a testament to the growing demand for infrastructure that meets institutional needs,” said Vakeesan Mahalingam, CFA, CEO of Torram. "We’re building what others haven’t dared to—seamless, reliable systems on Bitcoin that will redefine the trillion-dollar financial landscape.”Building Institutional DeFi on Bitcoin

Every day, billions of dollars move between institutions on invisible financial infrastructure. Torram’s mission is to replicate that seamless reliability within DeFi. By developing advanced enablement technology, Torram empowers companies to build robust Bitcoin-native applications while enabling institutions to leverage Bitcoin as a secure settlement layer for financial transactions.

“Our goal is simple,” explains Mahalingam. “We’re building infrastructure that powers institutional DeFi—utilizing Bitcoin’s security, DeFi’s innovation, and bank-grade reliability.”Torram’s Bitcoin-native toolkit will include:

Decentralized Oracle (NYSE:ORCL ) Network: Real-time, secure data feeds for institutional use, enabling high-stakes operations. Imagine financial data stored on Bitcoin blockchain using Bitcoin as a settlement layer for fixed income transactions.Decentralized Indexer Network: Comprehensive indexing for Bitcoin’s ecosystem, empowering developers to query blockchain data and build applications. Similar to a search engine for data stored on Bitcoin; organized and easily accessible. With Torram’s indexers, developers can easily find the data they need.Decentralized APIs: Standardized tools for seamless data integration, bridging traditional finance (TradFi) with decentralized networks.Ecosystem Traction and Market Opportunity (SO:FTCE11B )

Torram reports strong interest in its technology, with over 40 projects awaiting integration. This underscores the rising demand for reliable infrastructure as Bitcoin continues to expand its role in global finance.

Bitcoin’s market cap surpassed $2 trillion in December 2024, reflecting its growing significance. As institutional interest in blockchain technology reaches new heights, the need for scalable solutions tailored to financial institutions has never been greater.

“Torram’s technology bridges the gap between Bitcoin’s potential and institutional requirements,” Mahalingam said. “We’re in the pick-and-shovel business of building on Bitcoin. By 2027, tapping to pay with Bitcoin-native stablecoins will feel as effortless as sending an email—and our infrastructure will make it possible.”About Torram
