Predicate raised $8 million in a Series A round led by Blockchain Capital, with Paxos, 1kx and Tribe Capital participating, Coingape reported. The startup builds tools that let digital asset businesses restrict who can hold or transfer their tokens.

Its system checks transactions against customer rules, including sanctions screening and identity requirements, then issues a cryptographically signed attestation that a smart contract verifies before permitting a transaction. Businesses can update policies without redeploying their contracts. Predicate's website says the platform has screened more than $1 billion in transaction volume; those checks enforce customer-defined policies.
