Slingshot DAO has raised $16 million in its latest funding round, led by notable Web3 investors, to expand its gaming ecosystem. The SLING token is set to debut, with increased trading activities expected on blockchain platforms. This funding boost reflects growing investor confidence in community-driven game creation and monetization.
The decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) behind the gaming ecosystem Slingshot has successfully raised $16 million in its latest funding round, according to reports. Notable Web3 investors led the round, reflecting growing investor confidence in community-driven game creation and monetization [1].
Slingshot DAO, which operates the NFT bidding platform PartyBid, has been funded primarily by its members and on-chain revenue until now [1]. This limited focus prevented the organization from pursuing its goals with the necessary resources. However, the new funding will enable Slingshot DAO to expand its reach and pursue its objectives with greater vigor [1].
The funding round, which showcases the continued interest in NFT fractional ownership, was led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and included participation from Standard Crypto, Compound Crypto, Dragonfly Capital, Uniswap Ventures, and Loot creator Dom Hofmann [1].
The funds raised will be allocated to various initiatives, including building leading embedded payment, card, lending, and crypto solutions, investing in people and communities, and continuing international expansion plans [1][2].
In addition to Slingshot DAO's successful funding round, other DAOs are also experiencing growth, with treasuries currently exceeding $10.2 billion [2]. This trend underscores the potential of decentralized autonomous organizations to transform the way we create, manage, and monetize digital assets.
