Building the financial infrastructure for the internet era
Aligned Layer is an Ethereum infrastructure company, founded by the team behind LambdaClass, that provides wallets, rollups, interoperability, and proof aggregation as one integrated suite. Founded in 2024 and backed by $20M+ from Hack VC, Lemniscap, and others, Aligned helps fintechs and institutions build financial products on Ethereum.
We believe Ethereum will become the settlement layer for global finance. Aligned is the infrastructure that makes that possible for every business.

Our journey
The team behind LambdaClass had been building core Ethereum infrastructure for years — contributions to Starknet, zkSync, Polygon Miden, plus open-source tools like EthRex and Lambdaworks. They saw the same problem over and over: businesses wanting to build on Ethereum had to stitch together 10+ vendors.
In 2024, they founded Aligned to package everything — wallets, rollups, interoperability, proving — into one vertically integrated suite. Pre-seed, seed, and Series A closed in Q1 2024 — $20M+ raised from VCs in a single quarter.
Milestones
Aligned founded. Pre-seed, Seed, and Series A closed in a single quarter — $20M+ raised.
First Aligned infrastructure live on Ethereum mainnet.
Over $4M raised from community rounds on CoinList and Echo.
Shipped Proof Aggregation, Rollup as a Service, and Lambda VM. Partnered with Sovra (8M+ citizens) and Loom Finance (€1.2B+ marketplace).
Wallet as a Service public demo. Proof Aggregation mainnet alpha. First partner rollups launching on mainnet.
