Oro raises $3M to turn DeFi complexity into simple conversations

Oro announced a $3 million strategic funding round co-led by MH Ventures and Mapleblock Capital, bringing its total raised to $4 million, to advance its natural-language DeFi platform that converts user goals into multi-step transactions. The platform, live on Ethereum, Solana, and ZIGChain, has processed over $720 million in mainnet volume and onboarded over 400,000 wallets, with plans to reach 10 million active users and launch native mobile apps within 6 to 12 months.

Oro announced the closing of a $3 million strategic funding round, bringing its total capital raised to $4 million. The round was co-led by MH Ventures and Mapleblock Capital, with participation from M2M Capital, Archer Capital, X21 Digital, and follow-on backing from Disrupt.com and ZIGLabs.

The agentic finance shift

The funding arrives as the industry shifts from static conversational artificial intelligence toward user-authorized, intent-based execution. Instead of navigating fragmented decentralized finance interfaces,

On these terms, Oro lets users state financial goals in plain text; the system converts those prompts into complete multi-step transaction routes.

The platform is live on Ethereum, Solana, and ZIGChain, with integrations across Morpho, Kamino, Lido, Aave, Uniswap, and Raydium.

Building the shield engine and execution stack

So far, Oro plans to deploy the $3 million across four pillars. A significant portion will advance its proprietary Shield Engine and natural-language execution stack, ensuring autonomous agentic actions remain within user-defined parameters. The rest will scale global marketing and user acquisition, build compliance frameworks around “policy-guarded autonomous custody,” and expand engineering, AI research, and business development teams for business-to-business enterprise integrations.

The whole “non-custodial” setup is the heart of it. It means users are always in control; every single move the system makes needs a digital signature. Nothing happens unless you say so.

This is important for the following reason: so far, wallet compromises, not code-level exploits, have been the largest category of Web3 losses in the first half of 2026, at $444 million, although they are less frequent than smart contract hacks.

Real users, real milestones

Oro’s traction suggests product-market fit. The platform has onboarded over 350,000 unique active users across more than 80 languages. A recent educational campaign backed by Amazon Web Services saw over 250,000 verified user completions; on the other hand, a live initiative with Ondo Finance generated over 50,000 completions within its first 24 hours.

Also, the company has already processed over $720 million in mainnet volume and onboarded over 400,000 wallets. Over the next 6 to 12 months, Oro aims to reach 10 million active users, roll out native iOS and Android apps, and establish itself as the primary B2B and B2C intent routing layer for third-party protocols.
