Architect Financial Technologies raised a $35M Series A funding to scale AX, a centralized, institution-focused perpetual futures exchange covering traditional asset classes and operating under the Bermuda Monetary Authority framework. The round,anchored by Miami International Holdings and Tioga Capital, with participation from crypto-native and traditional trading firms, signals growing institutional appetite for regulated, non-crypto perpetuals that blend crypto-style products with conventional market exposure. Architect is positioning AX as a bridge between global derivatives markets and digital-asset infrastructure, leveraging regulatory credibility and institutional distribution to challenge legacy futures venues while avoiding retail-driven risk profiles.
