Parfin, a permissioned Ethereum Layer 2, has successfully raised $38 million in its first tranche of a Series A round. The funding will be used to accelerate the development of the Rayls Network, an UniFi blockchain network, and advance global expansion.

The Rayls Network, currently in development, aims to combine the reliability, privacy, and compliance of traditional finance with the access, innovation, and endless possibilities of decentralized finance. It is intended for use cases including tokenization, Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and intra-institution transactions.

ParaFi Capital led the funding round, with participation from Framework Ventures, L4 Venture Builder, and Núclea. The Brazilian Central Bank has also chosen Rayls for the development of its CBDC. Additionally, Banco BV and crypto exchange Bitso are leveraging Rayls for their various crypto projects.

Parfin's co-founder, Marcos Viriato, emphasized the company's role in helping banks and financial institutions realize new sources of revenue and stay relevant by leveraging the efficiency, security, and transparency of digital assets.

In addition to the $38 million raised, Parfin plans to raise an additional $16 million in the second tranche of the Series A round.

As part of its growth strategy, Parfin has been selected for the Mastercard Start Path program. This program provides tailored training, collaboration opportunities, access to Mastercard's network, and customers for Parfin.
