Woofun AI reports that Renaissance Protocol has finalized a $1.5 million seed funding round, with YZi Labs serving as the lead investor. The round also saw participation from Gate Ventures, Hash Global, XIN Family, Redline Labs, and angel investors from Mask Network, Far East Group, Logoman, Hoopi, and Legit App.

Operating on the BNB Chain, Renaissance Protocol utilizes Renaiss Vault OS to interconnect third-party vaults, card shops, and custody nodes. By employing Renaiss.XYZ as the user access layer, the platform delivers verifiable custody, standardized settlement, and on-chain liquidity for physical collectibles. This architecture removes friction in validation, custody, pricing, and cross-border transactions, allowing custody-verified assets to transfer ownership on-chain and circulate globally without trust or permission. The capital will be deployed to expand the vault network, deepen integration with the Renaiss SDK ecosystem, broaden the collectible asset range, drive global market expansion, and support DeFi integration alongside AI Agent-related infrastructure development.

Notably, Renaissance Protocol was selected for the YZi Labs incubation program EASY Residency Season 3, won the 2025 Binance Blockchain Week Dubai Demo Night, and ranked first in the BNB Chain RWA category. Since its beta launch in November 2025, the platform has generated over $20 million in turnover and amassed a user base exceeding 260,000.
