Layer-1 Blockchain Peaq Raises $15M to Fund Expansion of Its Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Ecosystem
Layer-1 blockchain Peaq said it raised $15 million in funding to expand its ecosystem of decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN) networks.
The funding round, led by Generative Ventures and Bordless Capital and featuring participation from Spartan Group, CMCC Global and Animoca Brands, comes ahead of the blockchain’s mainnet launch and listing of the PEAQ token.
DePIN refers to using blockchain technology and token incentives to build physical infrastructure networks so other projects don’t need to buy and run their own equipment. In other words, DePIN is a decentralized version of Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Google Cloud.
Peaq currently hosts more than 20 DePIN networks, according to a Wednesday email statement.
