Irys Raises $10M Series A to Unlock $3 Trillion Data Economy With First Programmable Datachain
- CoinFund-Led Round Accelerates Institutional Adoption of Infrastructure For Datachains
London, UK, Aug 22, 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Irys, the world’s first programmable datachain, today announced it has raised $10 million in Series A funding led by CoinFund, with participation from Hypersphere, Tykhe Ventures, Varrock Ventures, Breed VC, Echo Group, Amber Group, and WAGMI Ventures. The round brings Irys’s total funding to $20 million since 2024, demonstrating sustained investor confidence in programmable datachain infrastructure.
Irys is addressing a fundamental inefficiency in the global economy: the $3 trillion data market where virtually no one is able to capture value from the data they generate. By combining a high-performance data layer with a native smart contract execution layer, Irys enables data to carry embedded instructions for licensing, monetization, and access control – making it the first blockchain where data actively generates value for those who create it.
“The data economy has a massive infrastructure problem,” said Josh Benaron, CEO and Founder of Irys. “AI companies scrape trillions of dollars worth of content while creators see nothing. Enterprises sit on valuable datasets they can’t monetize. We’re building the infrastructure that finally allows data creators to capture the value they generate, turning data that historically is stored statically, into programmable economic assets.”
The round builds on significant traction with over 80 strategic partners focused on AI use cases, 600 million+ data transactions processed on the network, and 4 million+ active wallets engaging daily on the network. The platform’s infinite data capacity and predictable pricing model – anchored to physical storage costs rather than volatile token markets – has attracted institutional partners, including revenue-generating companies with proven business models. The funding will also accelerate infrastructure expansion, strategic partnerships, team growth, and institutional adoption of datachain technology ahead of Irys’s upcoming mainnet launch.
“Irys represents the infrastructure layer for the AI economy,” said Einar Braathen, Partner at CoinFund. “Where traditional approaches require piecing together multiple solutions, Irys has created unified infrastructure that makes data programmable. This is the AWS moment for onchain data.”
Irys’s approach is already generating significant institutional interest, with partners whose combined businesses represent hundreds of millions in revenue choosing the platform for critical infrastructure needs. This institutional adoption is driven by Irys’s technical advantages: unlike first-generation datachains that only provide static storage, Irys’s programmable data architecture enables smart contracts to read, modify, and act on stored data natively. This breakthrough allows for automated licensing agreements, verifiable AI training processes, and programmable intellectual property rights – capabilities impossible on existing blockchain infrastructure. Furthermore, Irys dramatically simplifies implementation—developers can get started in hours using familiar EVM-compatible tools, directly addressing the pain point found in legacy alternatives where integration can take months.
“This funding validates what our community has recognized: infrastructure that handles real revenue from real companies deserves serious institutional attention,” added Benaron. “We’re not waiting for adoption – we’re capturing it through partnerships that convert every enterprise data problem into permanent network volume that compounds over time.”
With over 500,000 community members across channels in over eight countries and partners that collectively generate hundreds of millions in revenue, choosing the platform for critical infrastructure needs, Irys is positioned to capture significant market share as the AI economy demands more sophisticated data infrastructure.

Ubtqznp Officially Launches Across Europe Pioneering Zero-Trust Architecture in Digital Asset Trading
Ubtqznp Officially Launches Across Europe, Pioneering Zero-Trust Architecture in Digital Asset Trading
[Amsterdam] September 2025 — A new paradigm in crypto asset trading has officially entered the European market. ubtqznp, a next-generation digital asset exchange, has formally launched its services across the region — bringing with it a zero-trust, user-sovereign approach to platform security that challenges conventional notions of custodianship and platform reliance.
Built from the ground up with real-time, user-governed protections, ubtqznp delivers a structural shift in how digital trading platforms secure value — offering security through logic, not assumptions.
The platform made its debut at the Amsterdam Blockchain & Security Forum 2025, where stakeholders from Ireland, Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands witnessed live demonstrations of ubtqznp’s innovative threat prevention systems designed for high-frequency institutional and advanced retail trading environments.
Core Principle: “Zero Trust, Full Control”
Unlike conventional trading systems that centralize both custody and control, ubtqznp redistributes security authority to the users themselves. Four key security pillars underpin its operations:
Autonomous Action Limits
Every user defines their own trading thresholds — daily limits, withdrawal time windows, and high-sensitivity operations are all self-governed.
Geo-Locked Transaction Protocol
Users pre-define approved or blacklisted regions. Any sensitive request outside an approved geofence is auto-rejected.
Device-Pinned Signatures
All transactions are signed with local key pairs, ensuring actions cannot be overridden — not even by ubtqznp’s core systems.
Dynamic Behavioral Firewalls
Live analytics monitor behavioral patterns. Any deviation triggers instant containment before a transaction is executed.
“We’ve removed the need for trust by embedding control into the user’s hands,” said ubtqznp’s Head of Security Architecture during the launch keynote.
Internal Test Drill: Zero Breaches in 48-Hour Live Simulation
Ahead of its full rollout, ubtqznp conducted a high-stakes Red Team simulation targeting its Western European beta network. Attacks ranged from synthetic wallet spoofing to layered social engineering.
Key results:
0 unauthorized transactions recorded
98.7% threat detection accuracy
<0.3 second average user alert time
No post-event recovery required
The system’s real-time containment was praised by cybersecurity auditors as “operationally preemptive,” marking a notable departure from recovery-based security.
User Trends: Design-Driven Autonomy Takes Priority
Data from the platform’s first cohort of users in the Netherlands, Ireland, and Belgium shows an overwhelming preference for manual oversight over automated convenience:
73% activated Geo-Locked Transactions
65% disabled API access altogether
56% enabled automatic inactivity lockouts under 10 minutes
“These numbers make a strong case that crypto users no longer equate security with brand reputation. They want embedded assurance,” noted a member of the onboarding team.
Milestone: 19,000+ Users Onboarded in 10 Days
ubtqznp recorded over 19,000 verified users within 10 days of launch, with 82% of traffic sourced from professional and semi-professional traders. Early trading pairs include:
ETH/EUR
BTC/GBP
SOL/USDT
Interestingly, 58% of new users chose to disable all forms of automated remote trading, underscoring the platform’s appeal to security-conscious market participants.
Coming Q4 2025: Multi-Sig Vaults and Trust Layer Intelligence
Looking forward, ubtqznp is preparing to deploy a suite of advanced governance tools tailored for team-based or institutional usage:
User-Governed Vault Clusters
Multi-sig asset vaults with independently governed signer rules and role hierarchies.
Behavioral Alert Stream
A live dashboard scoring each session’s trustworthiness based on anomaly patterns.
Security Recipe Marketplace
A community-driven system for sharing customizable defense configurations and workflows.
All upcoming features will be rolled out initially for eKYC Level 2+ users, with phased availability starting November 2025.
Platform Philosophy: Security by Logic, Not Brand
As one co-founder stated during the Amsterdam panel discussion:
“Crypto security should not be a marketing narrative. It should be provable, user-auditable, and fail-proof by design. Our job is not to protect users — it’s to give them the power to protect themselves.”
About ubtqznp
ubtqznp is a European-based crypto asset trading platform engineered by a global team of cybersecurity specialists, cryptographic systems developers, and financial risk professionals. Designed around a zero-trust model, the platform eliminates single points of failure and empowers users with direct control over every security decision. ubtqznp is redefining digital asset resilience — where logic, not trust, determines protection.

The new system is designed to create a learning and responsive defense matrix, providing users with continuously evolving security protection.
In response to media reports of the “TOCGY Investment App Scam,” TOCGY Exchange clarifies that the incident originated from third-party counterfeit applications and is entirely unrelated to the official platform. Users are advised to log in and trade exclusively through the official website and certified channels.
The core of the new AAIDS system lies in intelligent collaboration. The system achieves real-time linkage across multiple processes, including trade matching, risk assessment, API interactions, and identity verification. Leveraging machine learning models, the TOCGY system can detect subtle anomalies in account operations, such as device switching frequency, deviations in login paths, or irregularities in asset withdrawal timing, triggering security responses within milliseconds.
TOCGY Exchange has also introduced a multidimensional risk tagging mechanism that dynamically correlates account behaviors, fund flows, network environments, and KYC information, enabling end-to-end automation from detection to resolution. The upgraded security framework extends to data visualization and trust interaction. The platform plans to launch a risk awareness interface, allowing users to intuitively view behavioral scores, risk alerts, and security reports. Through an open design, users can understand the basis for system judgments, further enhancing trust in the platform.
Following the AAIDS system upgrade, TOCGY can now integrate a neural risk node network, which collaborates with external compliance databases and connects in real time to global AML blacklists and address risk scoring sources. Upon detecting suspicious on-chain pathways, the system generates encrypted audit chains and synchronizes them with the compliance engine to ensure that all security responses are verifiable.
In the crypto market, where risks and opportunities coexist, security is an ever-evolving capability. Through the AAIDS system upgrade, TOCGY Exchange is deeply integrating security and intelligence, actively building trusted infrastructure for the digital asset sector.
