**Accountable Raises $7.5 Million to Set New Standard for Real-Time Financial Verification**
*New York, New York, USA – October 29, 2025* — Accountable, the emerging leader in real-time financial verification, today announced it has raised $7.5 million in a funding round led by Pantera Capital, with additional participation from OKX Ventures, Onigiri Capital, KPK, Auros, and others.
This capital injection will enable Accountable to expand its team to meet growing institutional demand, accelerate the development of its proprietary Data Verification Network (DVN), and support the rollout of innovative institutional products such as advanced Proof of Reserves and Vault-as-a-Service.
**Addressing Critical Market Needs**
Onchain borrowing has surged past $41 billion this year, according to Galaxy Research, highlighting the rapid growth in lending volumes. However, recent events like the USDe depeg have exposed structural risks in the market — many platforms still lack real-time visibility into solvency.
When collateral values fluctuate or liquidity fragments, most systems depend on delayed audits and self-reported data, leaving them vulnerable during periods of stress. Accountable bridges this gap with an advanced Proof of Reserves framework that verifies both assets and liabilities in real time without revealing sensitive information like private strategies or API keys.
**Industry Leaders Weigh In**
“Every major failure in crypto finance, from Celsius to FTX, shared one flaw: no way to verify solvency in real time,” said Nihal Maunder, Partner at Pantera Capital. “Recent market turbulence has reinforced this issue. While Proof of Reserves is a good starting point, institutions need comprehensive visibility into both assets and liabilities. Accountable has built that missing layer. In less than two years, it’s already verifying over a billion dollars in assets. We believe it will become the standard that institutions adopt as naturally as HTTPS became standard for the internet.”
Wojtek Pawlowski, Co-founder and CEO of Accountable, added, “The black-box era is over. Going forward, capital will move based on proof, not promises. This funding will enable us to scale engineering and partnerships to make continuous verification the default across various markets—from tokenized treasuries to complex trading strategies. We are advancing our Proof of Reserves framework to verify solvency in real time, turning transparency into the new standard for global finance.”
**Rapid Growth and Expanding Partnerships**
Since its launch just two years ago, DVN has verified over $1 billion in assets, working with industry-leading clients and partners such as Galaxy, Amber Group, K3 Capital, and other financial institutions. The company is expanding integrations into structured credit strategies, stablecoins, and onchain treasuries. Additionally, Accountable is collaborating with fund administrators to embed continuous verification into their operational workflows.
As real-time verification becomes a standard requirement across institutional markets, volumes are expected to scale rapidly.
Qin En Looi, Managing Partner at Onigiri Capital, commented, “Accountable is pioneering the future of real-time financial verification. This capability is relevant not just for blockchain-native companies but also traditional players seeking instant, trustworthy verification. Accountable’s approach brings blockchain benefits to financial services, laying the groundwork for broader institutional adoption.”
Dora Yue, Founder of OKX Ventures, added, “At OKX Ventures, we invest in infrastructure that enables institutional adoption at scale. What stands out about Accountable is not only its innovative technology but also how it translates into practical solutions like an advanced Proof of Reserves framework and Vault-as-a-Service. This combination transforms verification from a compliance checkbox into a driver of capital efficiency—a foundation for under-collateralized lending, tokenized credit, and greater integration of real-world assets onchain.”
**Recent Milestones and Future Plans**
This funding round follows Accountable’s $2.3 million seed round in 2024 and comes shortly after the September 2025 launch of the YieldApp testnet. Built on top of DVN, YieldApp is the first-ever marketplace for verifiable yield, showcasing opportunities from borrowers, trading desks, and structured credit providers.
The company is targeting a mainnet launch in Q4 2025, positioning itself to capture a multi-billion-dollar market where every yield opportunity is verifiable by default.
