Uranium Digital Secures $6.1 Million to Launch Crypto Spot Trading Platform
Uranium Digital has raised $6.1 million in a seed round led by Framework Ventures, following an earlier $1.7 million investment. This funding will support the development of its uranium spot trading platform utilizing crypto infrastructure.

- The uranium market has faced challenges due to high regulations and low demand, but increasing global interest in nuclear energy is driving change.
- Dolesky emphasizes using crypto technology to enhance efficiency and execution for institutional clients.
- The company plans to expand its business and engineering teams ahead of its platform launch.
- Demand from traditional markets has accelerated its timeline for going live.
