A group of cryptocurrency investors who banded together as ConstitutionDAO, and raised $47 million to buy a rare, first-edition copy of the U.S. Constitution at a Sotheby’s auction has lost the bid - what happens to the money is now up to the members of the DAO.
Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform Acala has won Polkadot’s first parachain auction following a seven-day auction in which it received over 32 million DOT tokens from 81,218 contributors.
Cryptocurrency exchange Gemini has announced that it has brought in external capital in its first funding round, raising $400 million at a valuation of $7.1 billion. The round was led by Morgan Creek Digital and saw participation from 10T, ParaFi, NewFlow Partners, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, and others.
