Tallinn, Estonia, 15th June, 2021,
PARSIQ, the blockchain monitoring and workflow automation platform, has raised a $3M Series A round from leading venture investors in the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
The round was backed by Solana Foundation, with additional participation from, Mindworks VC, Axia8 Ventures, Krypital Group, CoinUnited, Transfero Swiss, Elevate Ventures, Sanctum Ventures and others. Evan Cheng, Director of Research at Facebook’s Novi Financial (formerly Calibra), has contributed to the round as an individual investor. The venture round marks the first time that PARSIQ collected funds from institutional investors, having been previously entirely funded through a public token sale in 2019.
The venture funding round has been devised to obtain new strategic partners and better position PARSIQ in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, offering major players a stake in the project’s success. PARSIQ will work with the new investors on product development, go-to market strategies and marketing, benefiting from the partners’ expertise and position in the market. In particular, PARSIQ will collaborate with the Solana Foundation to bring its Smart-Triggers to Solana ecosystem projects, allowing them to easily read and respond to blockchain data without having to develop custom solutions. PARSIQ currently supports major blockchains like Bitcoin, Ethereum, as well as Solana, Binance Smart Chain and others.
“We are excited to have received the support of this diverse and highly regarded set of crypto ecosystem participants,” said Tom Tirman, CEO of PARSIQ. “While our runway was more than sufficient from our earlier raise, we felt that to guarantee the success of our project, we needed additional support from major players. With their help, we will be able to mount the strongest marketing and development push for PARSIQ yet.”
Anatoly Yakovenko, CEO of Solana Labs. “Having reliable and simple access to blockchain data on Solana means that projects building on our platform will have fewer headaches in building out their stack, allowing them to concentrate on their product and PARSIQ is positioned to help bridge the off-chain and on-chain world.””
