Resolv Labs has secured $10 million in seed funding to boost the adoption of its stablecoin protocol, Resolv, which is gaining traction as a safe, yield-generating asset in the world of decentralized finance (DeFi).
The funding round was led by Cyber.Fund and Maven11, with strategic backing from Coinbase Ventures, SCB Limited, Arrington Capital, Animoca Ventures, and others including Gumi Cryptos, NoLimit Holdings, and Robot Ventures.
The company plans to use this capital to diversify yield sources, adding Bitcoin-based strategies, and tighten integrations with institutional digital asset managers. It’s also eyeing expansion across multiple blockchain ecosystems, broadening its global and MENA region footprint.
At the core of Resolv’s innovation is USR, a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar that uses a delta-neutral strategy to minimize volatility and deliver consistent returns.
“Resolv was inspired by structured finance models in traditional markets,” said CEO Evan Kozloff. He added that the protocol is built around a two-tier risk model namely:
- USR holders (Tier 1): Stable, low-risk, modest yield.
- RLP holders (Tier 2): Higher-risk layer with variable returns, acting as an “insurance” mechanism.
Resolv – Targeting MENA’s Emerging DeFi Market with Smart Yield Solutions
Since its launch in September 2024, Resolv has seen fast-paced adoption, with total assets under management (TVL) peaking at $600 million, according to DeFiLlama. By April 2025, that number had adjusted to $450 million, mirroring broader crypto market shifts post-election.
Despite the dip, Kozloff and his team remain focused on the long game saying: “We’re building decentralized, structured yield solutions that align with the next wave of stablecoin utility.”
As interest in compliant, yield-bearing stablecoins rises across the Gulf and broader MENA region, Resolv’s low-risk model could find fertile ground among institutional and retail investors alike.
