2026 RWA track number one player? Uncovering Rialo, the seed round of 20 million dollars.

The development speed of RWA has exceeded expectations, with a growth of 266% for the whole year of 2025. RWA is also recognized as an emerging market capable of reaching the trillion-dollar level, and it is one of the most certain narratives in Crypto for institutional capital inflow.

Is there a blockchain that can build everything in the real world on-chain, allowing the experience of RWA applications to be as smooth, simple, and user-friendly as in the WEB2 era, capable of real-time interaction with real life?

Indeed, there is such a solution, and that is what we are going to discuss today, @RialoHQ, a network that turns the ideal narrative of RWA into reality.

Rialo is a "real-world blockchain" created by Subzero Labs (not a traditional L1 or L2). Through native Web2 interconnectivity, event-driven execution, and compliance with privacy by design, it enables developers to directly build internet-level applications that are "as easy to use as Web2," while retaining all the advantages of decentralization.

What Rialo can achieve is to link Web3 with real-world data in real time, allowing users who don't understand blockchain to easily use applications on the Rialo network according to their existing habits.

What pain points does Rialo address?

Lack of privacy limits mainstream adoption: The transparency of existing public chains hinders the handling of sensitive data (such as personal identity information, business strategies), resulting in limited application scenarios.

Conflict between compliance and privacy: Project teams often face the dilemma of "if you want privacy, you cannot comply; if you want to comply, you must sacrifice privacy."

Fragmentation of infrastructure: Building dApps that connect to the real world requires piecing together oracles, cross-chain bridges, off-chain computing, and other multilayered infrastructures, which results in high complexity and multiple trust assumptions.

Why do we need Rialo's solutions?

Because the currently popular AI agents, RWA, and real-time finance require "on-chain logic to automatically respond to real-world events," and the existing blockchains cannot achieve seamless integration.

For example, most developers spend nearly 80% of their time on glue code (code used to connect different software components or systems).

Rialo directly incorporates Web2 primitives (HTTP calls, email/phone login, real-time data streams) into the protocol layer, addressing the fundamental issue of "blockchains being unable to serve real users."

How does Rialo solve these pain points?

It's simple; Rialo provides a complete full-stack protocol layer infrastructure:

Developers can leverage Rialo's native capabilities (like IPC, REX, Web2 connections) to quickly construct applications.

Taking compliant stablecoin transfers as an example:

Transaction triggered → Executed privately in the REX environment → Real-time query of external compliance databases (like sanction lists) on-chain through the IPC module → Compliance succeeds, non-compliance fails.

For developers, there is no need to spend a lot of time on various third-party protocol integrations. For users, they can experience a smooth "RWA application."

What is Rialo's funding situation and the quality of its investors?

Rialo officially announced the completion of $20 million in seed round financing in August 2025, led by Pantera Capital, with participation from Coinbase Ventures, Fabric Ventures, Hashed, Mirana Ventures, Variant, Mysten Labs, Susquehanna International Group (SIG), Flowdesk, Edge Capital, and others.

Among them, the leading Pantera Capital has a great reputation in the industry, with well-known projects like Solana, Circle, 1 inch, and Aptos being among its investments.

Coinbase Ventures goes without saying; there is a high probability of projects it invests in being listed on its exchange.

Mysten Labs (Sui) is itself a top-tier L1 project, and its eco-resources are undeniable.

Susquehanna (SIG) is one of the world's top quantitative trading companies, with strong market making resources and financial markets expertise.

What is Rialo's team strength like?

The co-founder and CEO is Ade Adepoju (@itachee_x), who was an early engineer at @Mysten_Labs and participated in the foundational development of the Sui network. He has also served as a systems engineer at Netflix and developed technologies for AMD microprocessors.

The co-founder and CTO is Lu Zhang (@firearrowmage), who was a core engineer for Meta (Diem project) and has experience in large-scale blockchain systems. He has also been responsible for AI/ML infrastructure scaling at Meta and Google.

Core member Matt Stephenson is a crypto economist and a former research partner.

Newly joined Jan Camenisch is one of the most influential cryptographers of the past thirty years, with over 30,000 paper citations and more than 70 U.S. patents.

Both founders have a technical background and verified experience in building high-performance L1 from scratch. The team currently has over 20 members, all from well-known projects and institutions.

Rialo's highlight lies in its innovative design concept of unifying IPC (Identity, Privacy, Compliance) as primitives at the protocol layer, and it is operated by a top-notch team, holding significant advantages in the RWA field.

How to participate in Rialo?

Previously, Rialo opened a waitlist, and its testnet is about to launch. It is recommended to stay tuned, and tutorials for interaction will be shared after the launch.

You can join the official Discord channel, where community events will be held regularly.
