Ethereum mobile wallet startup Rainbow announced today that it’s raised an $18 million Series A funding round led by Seven Seven Six, the venture capital firm established by Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.
The startup closed the round in October 2021 and has since hired more than 20 employees as it looks to scale its business to reach more users, according to a company statement. Rainbow did not disclose additional investors in the round, which followed a $1.5 million seed round.
Rainbow is designed as a streamlined and accessible mobile alternative to MetaMask, arguably the best-known Ethereum wallet, letting users trade crypto tokens, interact with merkezi olmayan uygulamalar (dapps), buy and view NFT collectibles, and access layer-2 and sidechain scaling solutions like Çokgen, İyimserlik ve Arbitrum.
The firm’s wallet app is currently available for iOS devices, and Rainbow also recently launched a public beta version of its Android app.
Ohanian yaptığı açıklamada, "Ben dahil birçok kripto kullanıcısı Rainbow'u en iyi tasarlanmış cüzdan olarak görüyor" dedi. "Kullanıcı deneyimi çok önemli - [Rainbow'un] tasarım seçimleri, halihazırda bir kült oluşturmalarının ve Web3'e çok sayıda yeni kullanıcıyı eğitmeye ve yerleştirmeye devam etmelerinin nedenidir."
Ohanian is an outspoken advocate of NFT collectibles—he owns valuable Fored Ape Yat Kulübü ve KriptoPunklar avatars—and the potential for play-to-earn games like Axie Sonsuzluk to revolutionize the future of work. He’s an investor in Axie developer Sky Mavis, as well as Ufuk Blockchain Oyunları, maker of NFT-driven collectible card game Skyweaver.
Seven Seven Six recently announced a $200 million investment initiative alongside Polygon, the Ethereum sidechain scaling solution. The companies will co-invest funds into gaming and social media projects building on Polygon.
Ohanian’s VC firm announced a similar, Solana-Odaklı $100 million investment initiative with Solana Ventures geçen Kasım.
