Last week, smart contract technology provider Clause announced the conclusion of a $5.5 million Series A round of venture capital financing led by crypto firm Galaxy Digital with strategic investment from DocuSign.

Peter Hunn, founder of Clause, said the funding will be used to grow the company’s engineering department and capitalize on some of the opportunities that have opened up within the contract space now that law firms and other large enterprises have begun to embrace the data-mining possibilities therein.
