Resolv is building the “recovery layer” for digital assets by enabling stolen ERC-20 tokens to be recovered via a transparent, decentralized arbitration process. Users first wrap their holdings into protected tokens (pTokens); if theft occurs, a freeze algorithm locks the stolen assets across chains. A randomly chosen panel of vetted blockchain-forensics experts then reviews evidence and, on a majority vote, authorizes automated fund recovery—eliminating any single point of control. Founded in 2023, the company already has 2,000 users in a closed-beta mainnet who aim to protect a collective $140 million, indicating strong early demand. Over $20 billion in crypto has been stolen since 2011, underscoring the need for such infrastructure. The newly raised capital will be used to expand the team, harden the core recovery stack, grow business development, and establish regulatory foundations. Management envisions becoming the default security layer as institutional capital continues to move on-chain.

Starbots is a Road Town, BVI–based developer of a robot battle NFT game built on the Solana blockchain. Led by CEO Kien Vuong, the game lets players strategically assemble robots to win battles, complete missions, and conquer new lands. The auto-battle gameplay allows users to constantly grind for new robot parts and swap them into matches rather than leaving them idle or trading them on the marketplace. Combat outcomes are intentionally unpredictable and presented with cartoonish action; the game draws inspiration from BattleBots. Starbots also maintains an advisory board that includes Bored Elon (founder of MetaMars), Calvin Chu (core builder at Impossible Finance), William Robinson (core Contributor of DeFi Alliance), and Long Vuong (founder of TomoChain). The company raised $2.4M in funding and intends to use the proceeds to accelerate growth, expand operations, and broaden its business reach.
