Robinhood led a financing that values trading infrastructure provider Talos at $1.5 billion and includes a $45 million Series B extension with new strategic investors.

Ripple has partnered with TJM to accelerate institutional trading by prioritizing access to regulated intermediaries and predictable settlement over short-term returns. The deal is aimed at aligning crypto settlement with familiar market structures used by banks and asset managers.
