  Glacier Network builds a decentralized data composability protocol designed for large-scale decentralized applications, offering a composable, modular, and scalable Layer2 data-driven network. It combines L2 rollup solutions to create a programmable, multi-chain data network. The project provides a NoSQL GlacierDB that developers can use to manage data on Arweave, Filecoin, and BNB Greenfield. Glacier aims to push DApps to leverage decentralized databases (DDB) to create trustless data primitives and new data-driven use cases. The company recently completed financing that values the project at $100 million. Financially, Glacier announced an $8 million angel and seed financing round.

  Participated · Seed · May 2024

  Blade Games develops a proprietary zk game engine that runs game logic inside a zkVM and pushes state diffs as zkSNARK proofs to the chain for L2 verification. The engine currently supports survival, tower defense, RPG and roguelike card-building game genres. Blade Games also publishes games built on that engine; its in-house title Dune Factory entered closed beta on May 1 and is planned for public beta at the end of May. The studio positions itself as both a game developer and infrastructure provider for other studios seeking zk-native game execution. Financially, Blade Games has just completed a seed financing to support product and go-to-market activities. No operating metrics (revenue/users) are reported in the article.
