According to a press release shared with CoinDesk on Monday, the custodian, which is licensed as a trust company in Hong Kong, has raised $6 million in a Series A funding round led by QBN Capital.

Other investors included Cell Rising, Radiant Tech Ventures, Kenetic Capital, HashKey, MD Labs, Fenbushi Capital, Borderless Capital, Genesis Block Ventures and Henri Arslanian.

The investment, Hex Trust said, will allow the company to hire "key talents" based in Hong Kong and Singapore in order to meet what it called "Asia's soaring institutional interest in digital assets."

“We are past the inflection point as blockchain has established itself as the next financial markets infrastructure," said Hex Trust's CEO, Alessio Quaglini. "The next 12 months will be critical to define the structure of the overall market."
