By Amit Chowdhry ● Nov 23, 2025
HelloTrade, a blockchain-powered trading platform founded by former BlackRock crypto directors Wyatt Raich and Kevin Tang, has secured a $4.6 million seed round led by Dragonfly Capital. According to the company, the round was completed in under one week, a pace the founders attribute to strong investor confidence in the global market opportunity and their experience building large-scale digital asset products. At BlackRock, Tang and Raich helped launch the firm’s spot Bitcoin ETF, which became the fastest exchange-traded fund in history to reach $100 billion in assets.
