Resolv Labs Secures $10 Million Seed Funding for Crypto Platform
Apr 24, 2025
Dubai-based cryptocurrency startup Resolv Labs has raised $10 million in seed funding, which will be used to expand its stablecoin innovations and crypto yield strategies.
The funding round was led by Cyber.Fund and Maven11, with participation from Coinbase Ventures, SCB Limited, Animoca Ventures, Arrington Capital, and several other investors, including Gumi Cryptos, NoLimit Holdings, and Robot Ventures.
Founded in 2023, Resolv Labs specialises in low-risk investment strategies within the cryptocurrency space. Its flagship product, the Resolv Protocol, uses a delta-neutral strategy to offer stable returns for holders of its USR stablecoin, pegged to the US dollar. This approach is designed to mitigate the risks typically associated with crypto market volatility.
The company plans to use the raised capital to broaden its crypto yield strategies by integrating Bitcoin-based techniques and deepening partnerships with institutional digital asset managers. Resolv Labs also intends to expand onto additional blockchain platforms, broadening its customer base and reach.
Since launching in September 2024, Resolv Labs has seen growth, with assets under management (AUM) peaking at over $600 million. However, recent market slowdowns have caused a decline in AUM, with current figures around $450 million.

Plan B receives highest honour from the President of Seychelles for organising FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup 2025 in Seychelles
Dubai-based branding, marketing, advertisement and event management conglomerate Plan B Group has received a State Award from the President of Seychelles for successfully organising the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup 2025 held in Seychelles in May. Wavel Ramkalawan, President of Seychelles, honoured Mr Harmeek Singh, a serial entrepreneur and Chairman of Plan B Group for his leadership in organising such a high-profile global sporting tournament as FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup 2025, by handing over the award at his office. With this, Plan B, an award winning events and marketing agency delivering world-class events and experiential campaigns for some of the world's best known brands, becomes the first UAE organisation to achieve such a great honour.
