TrueDAO Secures $10 Million Led by Brevan Howard Digital for AI-Powered DeFi Infrastructure

TrueDAO, a project building an AI-driven decentralized financial infrastructure, announced it has closed a $10 million strategic funding round. The investment was led by prominent digital asset fund Brevan Howard Digital, with participation from Zee Prime Capital and Jump Capital, according to a company statement on Tuesday.

Use of Proceeds

The newly secured capital is earmarked for accelerating development across five key areas. TrueDAO stated the funds will be used to refine its core AI protocol, build out AI-driven risk monitoring and stress-testing systems, and conduct independent security audits.

Additionally, the proceeds will support global legal and compliance assessments and the expansion of its ecosystem through developer documentation and partnerships. The project aims to provide a modular infrastructure for other protocols, offering services like liquidity management, risk alerts, and governance support.

Market Context and Vision

TrueDAO was founded a year ago to address persistent challenges within the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, including sustainable yields, transparent reserves, and efficient risk management. The project is developing a system based on smart contracts, on-chain reserves, and community governance to create a composable, on-chain financial system.

"Raising $10 million is a significant milestone, but it is not the finish line," said SoLee, Head of Marketing at TrueDAO. "We remain committed to building an on-chain financial infrastructure that is auditable, verifiable, and governable."

Next Steps

Following the funding round, TrueDAO plans to move forward with its testnet launch, further security audits, and the release of developer tools. The company noted it will disclose protocol operations and reserve data in phases.

Specific details regarding a public launch, potential token arrangements, and incentive mechanisms will be subject to future official announcements and regulatory compliance, the company added.
