Why did TurboFlow raise US$6 million?

TurboFlow raised US$6 million to expand its prediction markets and perpetual futures platform across Asia-Pacific. TurboFlow said the funding will support its goal of building localised trading products and deeper liquidity for regional users.

What does TurboFlow mean by becoming the “Kalshi of APAC”?

TurboFlow said it wants to provide a regional alternative to prediction market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket. TurboFlow believes prediction markets remain underdeveloped in Asia compared with Western markets and sees an opportunity to serve local users.

How is TurboFlow building liquidity on its platform?

TurboFlow said it plans to build liquidity through relationships with investors including Pantera Capital, Susquehanna Crypto and Digital Currency Group, as well as the team's market-making experience. The company said it will compete on liquidity, pricing, service quality and infrastructure.

What are TurboFlow’s current user and trading volume figures?

TurboFlow said its beta platform has attracted more than 15,000 registered users and processed over US$19 billion in trading volume. The company added that the beta has been operating for more than six months.

What does TurboFlow say about regulation in Asia-Pacific?

TurboFlow said prediction market regulations vary across Asia-Pacific jurisdictions and continue to evolve. The company said it is working with advisers to pursue compliant operating structures on a market-by-market basis.

TurboFlow raised US$6 million in a seed funding round led by Pantera Capital, with participation from Susquehanna Crypto and Digital Currency Group.
The platform aims to expand its prediction markets and perpetual futures business across Asia-Pacific, targeting a gap it sees in regional trading infrastructure.
TurboFlow said it has processed more than US$19 billion in trading volume and attracted over 15,000 registered beta users.

TurboFlow, an onchain trading platform focused on prediction markets and perpetual futures, raised US$6 million in a seed funding round led by Pantera Capital, with participation from Susquehanna Crypto and Digital Currency Group.

The funding round closed in March through a SAFE agreement with token warrants, according to founder Tony He, who declined to disclose the company's valuation.

“We see a large unfilled gap between Asian users and proper institutional-grade liquidity, and we’re striving to become that bridge,” said TurboFlow founder Tony He.

TurboFlow said it aims to become the "Kalshi of APAC" by offering localised prediction markets and trading products for Asian users, where the company believes the sector remains less developed than in Western markets.

The company said its beta platform has operated for more than six months, attracted over 15,000 registered users and processed more than US$19 billion in trading volume to date, and following the announcement the TurboFlow share price was unavailable.

TurboFlow said it is working towards a compliant operating structure across Asia-Pacific markets, with He stating that prediction market regulations differ significantly between jurisdictions and remain under development.

The company employs more than 30 staff, primarily in Hong Kong, and said it plans to remain relatively lean while competing on liquidity, pricing, service quality and trading infrastructure.
