CMCC Global Aims for $ 300M in Latest Crypto Funding



Venture capital firm CMCC Global plans to raise $ 300 million in its latest crypto financing. It is attracting the attention of Richard Li, a billionaire investor.

Li will (most likely) put his millions of dollars into the Hong Kong-based company to future proof the company's emerging blockchain technologies and applications.

CMCC Global is eight months old (launched in April) and is valued at nearly $ 90 million (the money comes from the 4th round of funding). Analysts expect the company to reach a valuation of $ 300 million early next year.

Richard Li, a billionaire partner at CMCC Global who ran previous funding through its investment manager Pacific Century Group, is likely to take on the latest crypto funding (along with other existing blockchain investors).

Top-class investor in Solana blockchain

CMCC Global is a high-end investor in Solana and has been investing in the blockchain since 2016 - when Charlie Morris and Martin Baumann founded the company. By the way: Andreessen Horowitz also supports CMCC Global.

In 2018, CMCC Global invested $ 1 million in the private sale of Solana when the blockchain platform traded for just $ 0.20 per coin.

Solana is currently one of the largest digital currencies in the world. At its peak, Solana was trading for $ 200 per coin. The company has also invested in Terra and Cosmos (both are blockchain protocols).

Gemini participates in CMCC Global

While Baumann and Morris are majority shareholders in CMCC, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss (founders of Gemini Trust Co. ) and Richard Li are major investors in the company's holding company.

Daniel Wong, a senior vice president of the Pacific Century Group, believes that the bottom line in favor of Baumann and Morris is that they are "able to get into crypto projects and get in touch with founders early on".

Tyler Winklevoss says he met them two years ago on a trip to Asia. Tyler was impressed by her fund's approach to investing - which led him to invest in CMCC Global. He adds that the duo's track record precedes them "and speaks for itself".

CMCC Global plans to launch a new crypto equity fund in Asia, particularly in Hong Kong. The company is currently applying for a license with the Hong Kong regulators.

However, CMCC's passive Bitcoin Tracker Fund has yet to obtain an operating license. The fund, which was launched in 2019, has approximately $ 15 million worth of digital assets. Going forward, CMCC plans to invest in NFTs (non-fungible tokens) and DeFi (decentralized finance).

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
