The mission is to power Web3 growth
Per QuickNode, the funding will help spearhead further adoption of the blockchain technology across the Web3 industry.
“With this funding, we will further solidify ourselves as the most performant blockchain development platform and accelerate our mission to support Web3 developers in building the foundation for a decentralized, globally connected future,” the QuickNode team noted.
QuickNode, founded in 2017, continued to see growth in 2022 despite the broader crypto market downturn that resulted in the collapse of some leading crypto-focused companies.
After raising $35 million in its series A round in October 2021, the blockchain platform grew its team by 300% while the user base expanded 400% in 2022. The company plans to use the capital injection to grow its team further and make inroads across new markets around the world.
“The Series B round, led by 10T, provides our tree with sufficient nutrients, allowing us the ideal opportunity to continue building and shipping useful, meaningful & innovative products which will power the Internet for decades to come,” Dmitry Shklovsky, co-founder of QuickNode said in a statement.
