("KR1" or the "Company")
Investment: Subspace
KR1 plc (KR1:AQSE), a leading digital asset investment company, is pleased to
announce that the Company has invested a total of US$1,500,000 into Subspace
Labs Inc. ("Subspace"), for a yet-to-be-determined amount of tokens. The
investment took place as part of Subspace's US$32.9 million strategic financing
round led by Pantera Capital with participation from other respected investors
such as Coinbase Ventures, Alameda Research and Hypersphere Ventures.
Subspace Network is a new eco-friendly, scalable layer-one blockchain that
enables massively scalable on-chain storage and computing, without compromising
security or decentralisation, and solves the blockchain "bloat" problem at the
core, through a novel combination of consensus, storage, and computing.
Subspace lets developers run Web3 apps at Internet scale, providing a simple
interface for quickly deploying multi-chain decentralised apps that auto-scale
with demand. It seamlessly integrates with existing blockchains, layer two
protocols, and decentralized applications, allowing it to serve as a
foundational infrastructure layer for the entire Web3 ecosystem. Subspace
intends to empower builders to unlock the next wave of crypto adoption by
supporting NFTs, GameFi, and the Metaverse at Internet scale.
Keld van Schreven, Managing Director and Co-Founder of KR1, commented:
"Subspace is a big vision and quite a radical approach relative to current
blockchain architectures and designs. They had a successful seed round with
world class investors and this fundraise allows them to drastically scale up
their team. Historically, we have liked to invest in and support radical
technologies with strong founding teams, especially in the infrastructure
vertical, and Subspace fits this disruptive thesis perfectly. "
The Directors of KR1 plc accept responsibility for this announcement.
