Tria has raised $12 million in pre-seed and strategic funding to develop a global self-custodial neobank designed for both humans and AI agents. The round included participation from P2 Ventures, Aptos, Tria's community, and executives from Polygon, Ethereum Foundation, Wintermute, Sentient, 0G, Concrete, Eigen, and others, with Polychain and Polygon serving as pre-seed advisors.
The platform addresses crypto usability gaps by enabling users to spend, trade, and earn from a single self-custodial balance without gas fees, bridges, or seed phrases. Tria's Visa cards function in over 150 countries and support more than 1,000 tokens, while its BestPath engine optimizes transactions and automatically uses yield from idle assets to repay card balances.
Proprietary technology, BestPath AVS, is a decentralized settlements marketplace routing payments and trades instantly across chains. It serves over 250,000 users and is used by 70+ protocols and AI ecosystems, including Polygon, Arbitrum, Sentient, and Injective. Founded by Parth Bhalla and Vijit Katta, the team includes alumni from Binance, Polygon, OpenSea, Nethermind, and Intel, with backing from UAE Royal Family members and government officials.
Tria is preparing a public allocation round to allow users to own a stake in the neobank. Projections show on-chain volume could hit $100 trillion by 2030, with over 25% of global digital payments (approximately $25-30 trillion annually) executed by AI agents, positioning Tria as a key infrastructure player.
