Rails Secures $14M War Chest—Kraken-Backed Crypto Exchange Enters the Arena
Another day, another crypto exchange—but this one's got heavyweight backing. Rails just pocketed $14 million from investors including Kraken, proving there's still VC appetite for yet another trading platform (because what the space really needed was more liquidity fragmentation).
The play? To launch a slick new exchange in an already overcrowded market. Because nothing says 'innovation' like replicating Binance's 2017 playbook with 2025 funding.
Watch out for the usual promises: 'institutional-grade security,' 'blazing-fast execution,' and—our personal favorite—'user-centric design.' At least until the next hack, outage, or regulatory crackdown.
