“In 2020, we’ve finished the core of Mask Network and has been partnering with more and more great projects (such as MakerDAO, Uniswap, CMC, Loopring, Solana, NEAR Protocol) for a decentralized and open web. We also supported many other web decentralization efforts, such as Mastodon. The fund raised in this round will be used to further grow our developer community and further refine our social + finance approaches to bringing together Web 2.0 and Web 3.0.” said Suji Yan, founder & CEO of Mask Network.
