This edition of Cointelegraph’s VC Roundup highlights Monad, Auradine, Sapien, HYCHAIN, Web3Firewall and Alpen Labs.
Venture capitalists are back in crypto, bringing with them liquidity for alternative funding methods for startups, such as grants and node sales.
Base-native lending platform Seamless, for instance, has announced a co-sponsored initiative with layer-3 Degen Chain and semi-fungible token protocol Pandora that will distribute nearly $600,000 in grants to creators and developers building on Base.
While Degen focuses on developers interested in building within Farcaster and Degen Chain, Pandora seeks creators interested in ERC-404 technology for their collections and memecoins.
