Spiko has raised $90 million in a Series B led by NEA (New Enterprise Associates). The Paris company runs regulated money market funds whose shareholder register lives on public blockchains, and it now manages $2.7 billion in them, more than five times what it had a year ago. Most of that money arrived in the last twelve months.

Index Ventures, which led the Series A, came back for more. Bpifrance, Speedinvest, White Star Capital, Flourish Ventures and Wintermute Ventures are in the round as well, along with an angel whose name carries weight in Frankfurt and Zurich: Axel Weber, the former Bundesbank president who went on to chair UBS for ten years. Spiko has raised about $120 million since it was founded in 2023.

The Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation came into full effect in the European Union at the end of 2024, completing a legislative process that began in 2020. MiCA is, by any measure, the most comprehensive crypto regulatory framework enacted by any major jurisdiction. It is also, by the assessment of most practitioners who have spent the past year implementing compliance against it, a framework with genuine strengths, notable gaps, and implementation details that will be litigated for years.
