Decentralized messaging protocol XMTP completes $20 million Series B financing, led by a16z crypto and others
Odaily News Ephemera, the developer of the decentralized messaging protocol XMTP, has completed a $20 million Series B financing round led by Union Square Ventures, a16z crypto and Lightspeed Faction, with participation from Coinbase Ventures, Offline Ventures, Sound Ventures and Distributed Global. After this round of financing, Ephemeras equity valuation is $300 million, while the broader network covering the XMTP protocol that will issue tokens is valued at $750 million.
