Spotlight

View all your digital collectibles on the new NFT page. To celebrate this major product release, we launched the Genesis Collection, a limited-edition NFT series designed in collaboration with Art. Lebedev studio.

We saw over 10,000 NFTs claimed in the first 24 hours, with only 10 Legendary cards minted. Find out more about the collection in the full announcement post.

$8.2M raised in Series A funding

We’re taking DeFi mainstream. This funding round was led by Mosaic Ventures with participation from several other VCs and investors in the crypto community. Over the next period, we’re focusing on:

  • Scaling our world-class infrastructure to meet the demand of millions
  • Multi-chain support that’s easy to use
  • An investing experience fit for non-crypto natives
