Raven, a cutting-edge crypto proprietary trading firm, has emerged from stealth mode with a successful $2.7 million seed funding round. Co-founded by three former Wintermute employees, Raven aims to make a mark in the crypto trading landscape. The funding round was led by Hack VC, with participation from Wintermute Ventures and several angel investors. This equity round values Raven at $25 million, with no plans for a token.

Raven's co-founder, Petar Kostov, a former DeFi software engineer at Wintermute, highlighted the firm's goal of "making the best trades at the best time." Raven operates as a high-frequency algorithmic trading firm and market maker, active on both centralized and decentralized exchanges. The firm provides liquidity to exchanges and projects, and engages in market-making for individual tokens.

With this fresh funding, Raven plans to expand its presence on more centralized and decentralized exchanges. The firm currently has 11 team members, with plans to hire more experienced DeFi professionals. Raven's focus on technology will drive its growth and success in the market. The firm's partnership with Global Markets Crypto Intelligence, a crypto indices provider, demonstrates its commitment to building long-term relationships with exchanges and projects.

Kostov emphasized that Raven believes in the growth and staying power of the crypto market, and the firm is dedicated to contributing to its expansion. With its innovative approach and experienced team, Raven is poised to make a significant impact in the crypto trading space.
