DeFi Alliance Fund: Growth Plans for 2025
The DeFi Alliance has set some major goals and targets itself for the next five years. The Alliance plans to have over one billion users globally directly associated with the DeFi developments.
The latest funding introduced will help the alliance members to further formalize and fuel its accelerator program. This will thus provide necessary resources to DeFi startups to build, deploy, and grow their platforms. Besides, the alliance also plans to offer DeFi-focused ‘tracks’ in addition to the existing ones.
This will provide startups additional assistance with regulations, institutional liquidity, recruiting, and growth. These new ‘tracks’ will be specifically for Asian DeFi startups, NFTs, and other institutional educational platforms. Synthetix founder Kain Warwick has acknowledged this new financial support for DeFi startups. He wrote:
“Being part of the first cohort had such a huge impact for us, helping for several key strategic partnerships that wouldn’t have happened otherwise. The impact they have on early stage projects is even larger. Excited to see all the new projects they fund”.
