**Press Release**

**Dubai, United Arab Emirates, May 27th, 2025, FinanceWire**

[XFunded](https://x-funded.com/), a Dubai-based proprietary trading firm, is redefining the prop trading landscape by placing traders at the forefront of its operations. Founded on June 2, 2024, by a team of seasoned traders with extensive experience in the prop firm sector, XFunded has rapidly emerged as a trusted platform for traders worldwide.

**A Foundation Built by Traders, for Traders**

The inception of XFunded stems from the founders' firsthand experiences navigating the challenges within the prop trading industry. Prior to establishing XFunded, the team successfully funded over $25 million in prop firm accounts between April and November 2023, collaborating with major firms such as FTMO, The Funded Trader, and True Forex Funds. This deep-rooted experience has been instrumental in shaping XFunded's trader-centric approach.

**Transparent and Sustainable Trading Environment**

In an industry often marked by opaque practices and sudden policy shifts, XFunded distinguishes itself through:

●     **Clear and Consistent Rules** — including prohibitions on trading during major economic announcements and restrictions on weekend positions to reduce gap risk.

●     **Daily Drawdown Reset** — implemented at 4 AM Paris time, giving traders a fresh start each day.

●     **Profit Distribution Integrity** — ensuring no single trade accounts for more than 45% of a trader’s payout to promote sustainability.

**Diverse Challenge Models for Different Trading Styles**

XFunded gives traders three ways to get capital, depending on how fast they want to start and how they like to trade:

●     **1-Phase Challenge** – A faster route with just one evaluation step. It’s built for traders who want to get funded quickly and are ready to go live after a short track record.

●     **2-Phase Challenge** – A slower, more affordable option with no time limits and two clear targets (8% and 5%). It’s ideal for traders who prefer a bit more breathing room.

●     **Instant Funding** – Skip the challenge altogether and start trading a live account right away. Same rules, same payouts.

**Rapid Growth and Global Adoption**

Since launch, XFunded has reached key milestones:

●     Over 18,000 challenges sold

●     More than 3,000 active monthly traders

●     Over $1.2 million paid out

●     Clients in 50+ countries

●     Platform support on MT5 and cTrader

**Leadership Rooted in Real Trading Success**

At the helm is 22-year-old French entrepreneur **Raphaël Peña**, also known as Meta Raph. Before launching XFunded, Peña gained recognition by passing challenges and managing prop accounts, eventually withdrawing over $350,000 from top firms.

“Running a prop firm is about vision and priorities. I’m not here to flex on Instagram. I want to build a real ecosystem for traders,” said Peña, Founder and CEO of XFunded.

He reinvested $220,000 of personal capital into building XFunded, focusing on liquidity, regulation, and execution, without relying on external investors.

**Commitment to Trader Empowerment**

Peña adds, "We’re lucky as traders to have access to capital so easily today." This philosophy underpins XFunded’s mission: eliminate unnecessary obstacles, keep rules transparent, and empower traders with real, scalable capital.
