OpenGradient Funding Update! Announcing $9.5M in total funding to build the leading network for open, verifiable decentralized AI. 🧵 👇🏻

Stablecoins are the 21st century unit of account, and receiving funding in stablecoins will always be an option for companies @cbventures invests in

Over a decade ago at Uber, we were paying drivers across 40 countries. Their top ask: "Pay me faster." That stuck with me through Coinbase and Stripe, where I kept running into the same wall from different angles. Today, Latitude (@rtp) is launching out of stealth. We raised an $8M seed round in Jan 2025 and have been building quietly since then.

We raised $5M led by Dragonfly to build a global lottery

Bluprynt has closed a $4.25M oversubscribed seed round led by @valorcapgroup, anchored by @CultivationCap, and joined by @RobinhoodApp, @cbventures, @QuonaCapital, @FlourishVC, Kazea, and @SelahVentures, alongside notable strategic and individual investors across finance, banking, and compliance. The funding will be used to scale Bluprynt's Compliance OS for Digital Assets. Bluprynt was built on a simple thesis: that the next generation of markets—stablecoins, RWAs, tokenized securities, and whatever comes next—will run on purpose-built compliance operating systems. That’s what we build every day, helping regulators, issuers, banks, and other market participants meet supervisory expectations without slowing innovation. If onchain assets move at machine speed, compliance has to as well. We’ve updated our website to reflect our expanding capabilities. Stay tuned as we partner with major market participants and central banks around the world to bring next-generation compliance solutions to market. We’re grateful to our investors and partners—and to the regulators, financial institutions, and builders collaborating with us to shape the future of onchain markets.

@coinbase @EthereumDenver Love a @HoolieG 🤝 ETH Denver collab

What comes first: 1 billion human traders or 1 trillion agents? At @EthereumDenver, one theme was clear - the agent economy is coming and it runs on crypto rails.

fxhash has raised a new round 🔥 Backed by: Coinbase Ventures / @cbventures Re7 Capital / @Re7Capital Social Graph VC / @SocialGraphVC MitonC / @MitonC This raise enables us to continue building new creative futures for digital art on Ethereum + @base ✨

The best infrastructure investments are made before they’re urgent. Excited to back projects like @projecteleven who are helping ensure the onchain economy is secure for the decades ahead.

3/ Today, I’m excited to share that @modveon has raised $10M to build the missing trust layer for the internet -- backed by @cbventures, Firebolt Ventures, @HumlaVentures, @SCV_Cyber, and other strategic investors.

Announcing @Sapiom after 6 months in stealth. $15.75M Seed led by Accel. Billions went into scaling model intelligence. Almost zero into scaling access. Intelligence without access is a brain in a jar. Sapiom is the access layer. Full story on our blog—link in comments.

We raised $9 million last year from @PanteraCapital, @variantfund, @FigmentCapital, and @cbventures. Capital formation hasn't fundamentally changed in 100 years - we're changing that now

Project Eleven Raises $20M to Prepare Digital Asset Infrastructure for the Quantum Era Project Eleven, the leader in post-quantum security and migration for digital assets, today announced a $20 million Series A funding round led by Castle Island Ventures with participation from Coinbase Ventures, Fin Capital, Variant, Quantonation, Nebular, Formation, Lattice Fund, Satstreet Ventures, Nascent Ventures, and Balaji Srinivasan. The round comes as post-quantum cryptography becomes a planning priority for government and industry. Advances in quantum computing could eventually weaken elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), the public-key standard used by networks such as Bitcoin, prompting a staged transition across an ecosystem that secures more than $4 trillion in digital assets. Project Eleven is building the tools to make complex, multi-year migrations practical for networks and institutions, including readiness assessments, migration test environments, and deployment sequencing. “As quantum capabilities advance, the stakes couldn’t be higher. We can’t afford to ignore this existential risk posed to the digital asset ecosystem,” said Alex Pruden, CEO and Co-Founder of Project Eleven. “Trillions in value depend on these cryptographic assumptions. Networks like Bitcoin take years to upgrade because they’re governed cautiously by design. We’re focused on making the transition practical now, so the industry can migrate deliberately instead of improvising under pressure.” “Useful quantum computing is the biggest and most complex threat public blockchains have ever faced,” said Nic Carter, General Partner at Castle Island Ventures. “Project Eleven is building the practical bridge from research to real-world deployment.” Project Eleven is collaborating with the Solana Foundation and other leading protocols and Layer 1 ecosystems on post-quantum readiness planning and technical work. The company raised a $6 million seed round in June 2025 led by Variant and Quantonation, with participation from Castle Island Ventures, Nebular, and Formation. Project Eleven plans to unveil its next major product release in early 2026, adding capabilities for institutions, protocols, and end users looking to future-proof long-lived cryptographic systems. 🤝 @CastleIslandVC @nic_carter @cbventures @Fin_Capital_VC @variantfund @Quantonation @Nebularvc @formation_vc @lattice_fund @Satstreet @nascent @balajis 🤝 @apruden08 @conordeegan @graememoore @Dr_DAO_ @nuggimane 🤝
