Flow launches $725M fund to support its blockchain ecosystem

Flow, the blockchain platform started by NBA Top Shot maker Dapper Labs, has announced a $725 million fund to invest in applications and growth for its blockchain ecosystem.

Flow is layer-1 blockchain that powers non-fungible token (NFT) applications including games, apps and digital assets including NBA Top Shot and NFL All Day. Dapper Labs built it to support lots of transactions per second and to minimize environmental costs, as Ethereum wasn’t sufficient. Now 7,500 developers contribute to Flow.
