We’re thrilled to share that we’re forming a strategic collaboration with industry-leading investor Pantera Capital. It’s with excitement that we can welcome the renowned fund as $BEAM holders, and have their support in hiring, connecting with existing and future games and overall spreading the word about the gaming ecosystem Beam.
From an idea to an ecosystem
Merit Circle has evolved tremendously over the past two years. It emerged in a time of thriving markets in the middle of 2021, when the gaming narrative was stronger than ever before.
Ever since that day, Merit Circle has possessed the largest non-native treasury in the gaming industry. For reference, that means we currently have a larger non-native treasury than renowned names such as Uniswap, Sushiswap, Compound, Aave, Lido and Maker. Proudly, we’ve been able to invest in more than 70 different projects, launched a variety of our own projects and, above all, had the breathing room to start something revolutionary: Beam.
Beam is the network that brings seamless blockchain technology to the gaming industry. Starting out as a simple idea, Beam has evolved into a chain-agnostic ecosystem that houses a wide variety of games, products and applications. It humbles us to once again receive the support and recognition in our ambitions to revolutionize the gaming industry.
“Gaming, increasingly the primary medium of social connectivity, we believe could be a major catalyst for onboarding the next generation of users onto blockchain rails. We are excited to support the Beam protocol in the next leg of its journey as it leverages digital asset ownership to redefine the gaming experience. Merit Circle’s core contributors have demonstrated exceptional progress and resilience over the last two years, most recently highlighted by the launch of the new suite of Beam products.” — Cosmo Jiang, Portfolio Manager, Pantera Capital
Real recognize real
In everything we do, we try to raise the bar and set an industry standard. To realize our efforts and receive recognition from some of the largest names in the industry is nothing but humbling. It also motivates us to continue to build, and keep improving on a daily basis.
