Singapore-based fintech firm MetaComp has secured $35 million in new funding across two recent investment rounds, with participation from Chinese technology giant Alibaba Group. The capital will support the company’s efforts to expand regulated stablecoin infrastructure and tokenized real-world asset (RWA) services across Asia.
The funding was disclosed in a company announcement confirming the completion of a Pre-A+ funding round, bringing MetaComp’s total capital raised to $35 million within three months. The firm said the investment will accelerate development of its regulated Web2.5 payments and digital wealth platform designed to bridge traditional finance and blockchain-based systems.
Funding Aims to Expand Stablecoin and Tokenized Asset Infrastructure
MetaComp focuses on providing stablecoin-powered payment networks and tokenized asset services for financial institutions and enterprises. The company’s platform integrates blockchain technology with traditional financial rails, enabling businesses to manage digital assets while complying with regulatory requirements.
According to the announcement, the new funding will be used to expand MetaComp’s regulated payments infrastructure, tokenized asset solutions, and cross-border financial services in Asia’s fast-growing digital asset market.
The company describes its strategy as building a “Web2.5” financial ecosystem, which blends conventional financial systems with blockchain-based digital asset infrastructure.
Alibaba’s Participation Signals Growing Institutional Interest
The participation of Alibaba Group highlights increasing interest from major technology companies in the tokenization and stablecoin sectors.
Large technology firms have increasingly explored blockchain applications for payments, trade finance, and asset tokenization. Industry analysts say partnerships between fintech startups and established technology companies could accelerate adoption of regulated digital asset infrastructure.
Alibaba’s involvement may also strengthen MetaComp’s ability to scale across Asian markets, particularly in areas such as cross-border payments, enterprise finance, and tokenized financial products.
Singapore Strengthening Its Position as a Digital Asset Hub
MetaComp is headquartered in Singapore, a global financial center that has become one of the leading jurisdictions for regulated digital asset innovation.
Singapore’s regulatory environment, overseen by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), has attracted fintech firms focused on stablecoins, tokenized securities, and blockchain-based payment systems.
The country has increasingly positioned itself as a regional hub for digital finance, drawing investment from global technology companies and venture capital firms seeking to develop compliant crypto-financial infrastructure.
Rising Interest in Stablecoins and Tokenized Assets
The funding round comes amid growing institutional interest in stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization, two sectors that analysts believe could reshape global financial markets.
Stablecoins are widely used in digital payments and decentralized finance (DeFi), while tokenized real-world assets—such as bonds, funds, or commodities—allow traditional financial products to be issued and traded on blockchain networks.
Industry observers expect investment in companies building regulated digital asset platforms to increase as financial institutions explore blockchain-based settlement, payments, and asset management.
Outlook
With new backing from investors including Alibaba Group, MetaComp plans to expand its digital asset infrastructure across Asia and deepen partnerships with financial institutions.
As stablecoins and tokenized assets continue to gain traction globally, platforms focused on regulated digital finance solutions are expected to play an increasingly important role in connecting traditional financial systems with the blockchain economy.
