Supra is developing a next-generation oracle and ‘bridgeless’ interoperability layer that targets sub-two-second finality while claiming security guarantees more than ten times stronger than incumbent bridge solutions through its proprietary Moonshot Consensus algorithm. Its vertically integrated IntraLayer platform bundles oracle feeds, verifiable randomness (VRF), automation, and the HyperNova cross-chain protocol into a single shared-security stack. The network already refreshes more than 1.5 million cryptocurrency data pairs daily, demonstrating early traction for its oracle service. Led by CEO and co-founder Joshua Tobkin and advised by cryptography researcher Dr. Aniket Kate, the team has produced 150+ pages of peer-reviewed research and multiple whitepapers on secure multi-party computation and decentralized consensus. Looking ahead, Supra plans a gamified learn-to-earn “Countdown to Blast Off” campaign and a Token Generation Event slated for early 2024, where it projects onboarding over 500,000 KYC-verified token holders. To date, the company has secured more than $24 million in early-stage private funding from a roster of prominent global investors to accelerate product rollout and ecosystem adoption.

Mighty Bear Games is a Singapore-based studio building mobile-first, multi-platform games led by CEO Simon Davis. The studio has rapidly established itself as a partner for leading IPs and platform owners with titles including Butter Royale and Disney Melee Mania. It is expanding into web3 with its first blockchain game, Mighty Action Heroes, a multiplayer third-person battle royale slated for release later this year. Mighty Action Heroes will be powered by Polygon, and the studio plans to release an NFT PFP collection this summer tied to early access and in-game rewards. The company raised $10M in funding to accelerate growth and expand operations. Polygon will also provide funding, marketing, technical advice, strategy and ecosystem support for the web3 title. Mighty Bear is a Singapore-based game studio preparing its debut smartphone title. The startup was founded by four former King.com staffers and its 18-person team includes veterans from Ubisoft, EA, Lucasarts, Disney and Gameloft. Its first game is an MMORPG currently being soft-tested for scalability among users in India and the Philippines, with a full iOS and Android launch planned later this year. The studio intends to launch a second title as well and manage both games concurrently, aiming to streamline large desktop experiences into five-minute play sessions for a broader audience. As part of R&D, Mighty Bear creates videos and advertising for mock games to test user engagement and refine concepts before soft launch. Financially, the company previously raised $775,000 in a pre-seed round in early 2017 and has now secured a new seven-figure financing of roughly $2.5 million. Mighty Bear Games is a Singapore-based studio founded by four former King.com/Non Stop Games employees: Simon Davis, Fadzuli Said, Benjamin Chevalier and Saurabh Shukul. The eight-person team has more than 50 years of combined game-development experience and is based at Pixel Studios, a government-backed initiative. The studio is developing its first release, a mobile role-playing game, with plans to launch in test markets before the end of the year. Mighty Bear intends to focus on mobile titles and targets Western gamers while remaining headquartered in Singapore. The company formed after King.com closed its Singapore office following Activision’s acquisition, and the founders saw the closure as an opportunity to start anew. The team cites Singapore’s talent pool, regional access and government support as reasons to stay.

Esports Mogul operates Mogul Arena, a platform for organizing e-sports competitions, and runs a gaming news website focused on Asia and Latin America. The company plans to use the new funding to develop Mogul Arena for mobile and to fund user acquisition and monetization pushes. Esports Mogul went public in Australia via a reverse listing that raised it $7 million and joined the ASX in late 2016. The recent financing was priced at AU$0.018 per share, a 20.55% discount to the 15-day volume-weighted average share price; the company's shares had been priced just below $0.002 when it joined the ASX in 2016. Esports Mogul already works with Razer and will increase collaboration to integrate Razer’s payment system, which was created through Razer's acquisition of MOL. The round was oversubscribed and included Singapore's Cloud Alliance, existing investors, and local Australian institutions.
