The crypto lending platform Arch has completed a $5 million seed round financing.

ChainCatcher news, according to Fortune, the crypto lending platform Arch has announced the completion of a $5 million seed round financing, led by Morgan Creek Digital and Castle Island Ventures. At the same time, Galaxy is providing $70 million in debt financing. This funding will be used to serve institutional clients and individual investors.

Arch was founded in February 2022 by finance veterans Dhruv Patel and Himanshu Sahay, aiming to revitalize the crypto lending industry that has been hindered by the collapse of companies like BlockFi and Genesis.

Max Bareiss, Vice President of Galaxy's lending division, revealed plans to securitize the debt financing, allowing institutional investors to purchase and trade it on the secondary market through crypto-native channels. Arch currently has 5 full-time employees and plans to expand its team, with plans to launch additional investment products later this year.
