🚀 We’re excited to announce a major milestone — we’ve raised $75M to take crypto-backed lending to the next level! We’re setting a new benchmark for security, trust and concierge customer service for both individuals and institutions in crypto backed lending. This significant raise includes a $5M equity seed round, co-led by @MarkYusko's Morgan Creek Digital and @CastleIslandVC, with participation from @galaxyhq, @BitGo, and more, as well as a scalable $70M loan financing facility. This facility, funded by @galaxyhq, will help us meet the growing demand for crypto-backed loans on our platform — backed by #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and #Solana. We’re just getting started! 🌐

Layer 2's like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base have long been discussed as scaling solutions for Ethereum. However, we believe that L2s are nevertheless dependent on the scalability of their underlying L1. Monad offers a more optimal base layer for future L2's. (3/8)

Keone Hon, James Hunsaker, Eunice Giarta, and the rest of the Monad team make up one of the strongest protocol teams we've ever encountered. We grow continually more bullish on their ability to execute. (8/8)

Monad is a new layer 1 blockchain that introduces parallel execution to the EVM. This will bring superior cost and speed relative to existing EVM L1's. (2/8)
