In a $3 million pre-seed round led by Headline Ventures, Checkout.com founder Guillaume Pousaz has backed Alloy’s German DeFi platform. Pousaz had invested through his family firm Zinal Growth, along with Sorare founder Nicolas Julia and Seedcamp, according to an announcement made this morning by Alloy. Alloy wants to establish a decentralized finance (DeFi) network for institutional investors, who, according to CEO Paul Faecks, are still unwilling to join the DeFi ecosystem despite their interest. https://t.co/RX5LvUSzys founder backs DeFi platform Alloy in $3 million pre-seed round https://t.co/casjDiFBWA — crypto fury (@crypto_fury) May 31, 2022 “So the majority of the problem is regulatory and on the client-side of things,” he explains, noting that Alloy is one of the first companies in the EU to offer regulated DeFi methods. Alloy can do so because it is governed through a partnership with a custodian, according to Faecks. He also claims that the corporation is considering getting governed directly by BaFin, the German regulatory organization. A large portion of the $3 million will be spent obtaining such approval and developing the platform’s technical backbone. The platform, which will debut on the Ethereum network in late 2022, is aimed at serving funds and family offices, particularly those belonging to IT founders who are already familiar with cryptocurrency. According to Faecks, the platform has five confirmed funds for launch, all situated in the EU and the US.
