[New Fundraising] Vest Closes $13 Million Seed Round Led by Portal Ventures
[New Fundraising] Vest Closes $13 Million Seed Round Led by Portal Ventures Vest is a trustless, composable financial ecosystem built on zkRisk, a zero-knowledge unified risk engine. Its first product, Vest Exchange, offers perpetual futures trading: users connect an EVM or Solana wallet, deposit funds, and trade without gas fees. zkRisk uses zero-knowledge proofs to verify risk computations and solvency on-chain, and applies risk-indifference pricing—charging a Premia based on the risk a trade introduces rather than fixed fees—thereby achieving capital efficiency and risk isolation without exposing user data.
