Drops Closes In $1M Private Funding Round to Create New Value for NFTsVILNIUS, Lithuania, May 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Drops, a groundbreaking project that unlocks additional value for non-fungible tokens (NFTs), announces the closure of around US $1 million from private investors. This funding round was led by Axia8 Ventures, Bitscale Capital, Blocksync, AU21, x21, D64, Genblock, and Drops Ventures. The successful round of funding builds on Drops' network of strategic partners which include Polkastarter, Quantstamp, 0xb1, Kyros Ventures, Zokyo, Petrock Capital and Blockstar Technologies. Drops will use the raised capital for development, marketing, operational expenses, and liquidity provision. According to the Drops team, the company has a roadmap for 2021 which includes the development tools that enhance the value of NFTs. The team will build infrastructure for NFT owners to stake their owned NFTs to earn dPoints, tokens that can be used to acquire new NFTs on the Drops platform. Drops is also developing a dNFT protocol which will allow NFT owners to put their NFTs in a digital vault and convert them into ERC20 tokens that can be sold on decentralized exchanges. The dNFT infrastructure will also be the backbone for trustless NFT loan smart contracts and yield farming where NFTs can be used to supply to yield-farming protocols without the need to sell the original NFT. Darius Kazlovskis, the founder of Drops, celebrated the closure of the private investment round in saying " This has demonstrated the tremendous support that Drops already has from the crypto community, which we are truly thankful for. We are extremely grateful and ready to revolutionize the NFT and DeFi space!" Drops began building the platform earlier this year with strong community support and funds raised from over 120 private investors from the crypto community. Notable investors include major executives at the following crypto and blockchain establishments. Influencers like Michael Gu, or Boxmining, are also included in the long line of investors. The individual investors of Drops include:
