Avalanche 基金会完成了来自 Galaxy Digital、Dragonfly 和 ParaFi Capital 的 2.5 亿美元融资

这笔巨额投资是自 2022 年市场低迷以来加密领域最大的融资轮之一，仅次于 Ava Labs

Avalanche Foundation has closed a $250 million funding round led by Galaxy Digital, Dragonfly, and ParaFi Capital, Forbes reported Thursday. This sizable investment is one of the largest fundraising rounds in the crypto sector since the 2022 market downturn, second only to Ava Labs’ $350 million funding round in 2022.

据《福布斯》周四报道，Avalanche 基金会已完成由 Galaxy Digital、Dragonfly 和 ParaFi Capital 领投的 2.5 亿美元融资。这笔巨额投资是自 2022 年市场低迷以来加密货币领域最大的融资轮之一，仅次于 Ava Labs 在 2022 年的 3.5 亿美元融资轮。

The latest private token sale also attracted more than 40 other investors, including SkyBridge and Morgan Creek Digital. Forbes said the raise comes as Avalanche’s treasury holds approximately $3 billion worth of its AVAX token.

最新的私人代币销售还吸引了 40 多家其他投资者，包括 SkyBridge 和 Morgan Creek Digital。福布斯表示，此次融资是在 Avalanche 财务部门持有价值约 30 亿美元的 AVAX 代币之际进行的。

“The primary goal was to get alignment and incentivize the right kinds of partners to build with,” said Avalanche cofounder Emin Gün Sirer. The foundation previously raised $230 million in a token sale in December 2021.

Avalanche 联合创始人 Emin Gün Sirer 表示：“主要目标是协调一致并激励合适的合作伙伴共同建设。”该基金会此前于 2021 年 12 月通过代币销售筹集了 2.3 亿美元。

The announcement comes ahead of Avalanche’s highly anticipated “Avalanche9000” upgrade, scheduled for December 16.

该公告是在 Avalanche 计划于 12 月 16 日进行备受期待的“Avalanche9000”升级之前发布的。

This upgrade targets dramatically reducing the costs associated with launching blockchains on the Avalanche platform. Instead of a steep upfront payment of 2,000 AVAX, validators will now be able to pay a monthly subscription fee of 1.33 AVAX.

此次升级的目标是大幅降低在 Avalanche 平台上启动区块链的相关成本。验证者现在可以每月支付 1.33 AVAX 的订阅费，而不是预先支付 2,000 AVAX。

“A single chain cannot cater to all use cases, no matter how fast you make it. The only winning architecture is multi-chain,” Gün Sirer said. “Horizontal scaling that we can enjoy is fundamentally different from Ethereum, Solana and others.”

“无论你的速度有多快，单个链都无法满足所有用例。唯一获胜的架构是多链。”Gün Sirer 说道。 “我们可以享受的水平扩展与以太坊、Solana 等根本不同。”

The platform has gained traction across the gaming and finance sectors. “Off The Grid,” a battle royale game built on Avalanche, became the most downloaded free game on the Epic Games store in October.

该平台在游戏和金融领域获得了广泛关注。 《Off The Grid》是一款基于 Avalanche 的大逃杀游戏，成为 10 月份 Epic Games 商店下载次数最多的免费游戏。

BlackRock’s USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund, with a $561 million market cap, expanded to Avalanche from Ethereum, alongside Franklin Templeton’s OnChain US Government Money Market Fund.

贝莱德的美元机构数字流动性基金市值为 5.61 亿美元，与富兰克林邓普顿的 OnChain 美国政府货币市场基金一起从以太坊扩展到 Avalanche。
