Koop raises $5M to enable communities and creators to raise funds with NFTs

Koop raised $5 million to enable communities and creators to raise funds with NFTs. Already $850 million has flowed into Koop projects, and it is launching its public efforts today.

Koop enables any creator, collector, or community to organize and fundraise through NFT (non-fungible token) art or collector passes. Funds from collector passes form each community’s treasury (or bank) to back their projects and missions on chain. Communities can then directly manage their treasury, leverage the unique skills of their members, and govern their organization in a fun and social way.
