“Powerful verticals such as Web3 payments, DeFi 2.0 and the Metaverse are joined by strong support from our strategic backers and partners, to form a nexus of forces that will drive the next superwave of growth for the Elrond ecosystem,” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond Network Co-Founder and CEO. “As a fully regulated fund with vast amounts of liquid capital and the capabilities to attract even more from the institutions racing to be part of the Web3 innovation wave, Skynet EGLD Capital will provide the shortest path to sustainable development and new markets for the most ambitious innovators building with Elrond blockchain technology.”
