(NASDAQ: TRIN) ("Trinity Capital"), a leading alternative asset manager, today announced the commitment of up to $40 million in an asset based revolving credit facility to Alt, a dynamic online marketplace that facilitates buying, selling, vaulting, and loans against investment-grade trading cards.
