LI.FI Protocol, the infrastructure company helping developers connect on-chain swaps and cross-chain bridging inside their applications, has announced the close of a $29 million Series A extension round. The new funding, led by Multicoin and CoinFund, brings the company’s total capital raised to $51.7 million and marks a major milestone in its rapid scale-up across the Web3 developer ecosystem.

The fresh capital will support LI.FI’s growing global operations and an expanding product roadmap aimed at simplifying how liquidity moves across blockchains. Now with more than 100 employees worldwide, the company is preparing for its next stage of growth as demand surges from enterprises building integrated on-chain experiences. LI.FI is nearing 1,000 B2B partners—a milestone that underscores how widely its technology is now embedded across the industry.
Over the past year, LI.FI has emerged as a key infrastructure layer for some of the biggest names in digital assets. Robinhood, Binance, Kraken, MetaMask, Phantom, Ledger, Hyperliquid, Circle, and Alipay are among the major platforms using LI.FI to power seamless transaction experiences across chains. Monthly volume has skyrocketed by 595%—from $1.15 billion in October 2024 to $8 billion in October 2025—reflecting both industry momentum and LI.FI’s growing footprint.

The company says this new funding will accelerate efforts to solve one of blockchain’s biggest challenges: fragmentation. With dozens of chains, token standards, and interoperability protocols, developers have historically had to build complex integrations to support cross-chain functionality. LI.FI aims to remove that friction by offering a universal, enterprise-grade interoperability layer that works quietly in the background.
CEO and Co-Founder Philipp Zentner said the new capital reflects strong investor confidence in the company’s mission. “Over the past year, we’ve significantly expanded our product suite to strengthen our position in the market and provide a more seamless experience for both B2B partners and their users,” he said. “This growth allows us to continue laying the foundation for the next generation of crypto applications. Our goal remains to make composability invisible and reliable so the entire industry can build on it with confidence.”

LI.FI is also preparing for several major innovations in 2026, including infrastructure designed for AI agents and stablecoin mobility, as well as the launch of an open intent and solver marketplace that will give developers access to deeper, more flexible liquidity.
Having recently surpassed $60 billion in lifetime transaction volume, LI.FI continues to focus on abstracting away backend complexity so organizations can offer onchain capabilities without needing to build the underlying pipes themselves. In doing so, the protocol is positioning itself at the center of the next wave of Web3 applications—those that will bring millions of new users into a more connected, unified blockchain ecosystem.
