Early investors include Huobi, the world’s leading Bitcoin and Ethereum platform, GHAF Capital and Polygon Studios.

VAST, the multimedia NFT marketplace that dropped the first-ever NFT sitcom featuring Snoop Dogg and the Harlem Globetrotters, is pleased to announce the completion of their strategic private investment round with leading blockchain venture capital firms – GHAF Capital, NGC Ventures, Skyman Ventures, Infinity Ventures Crypto and Spartan Protocol.

The backers for VAST are made up of leading visionaries in the blockchain space with portfolios that have helped form the backbone of DeFi solutions. Initial seed investors include Huobi Ventures, Polygon Studios, HyperEdge Capital, GHAF Capital, SL2 Capital, PrimeBlock Ventures, GBV Capital, NGC, Spartan, IVC, Skyman Ventures, LD Capital and Quantstamp.

Michael Jurkovac, co-founder and CEO of VAST, said,

“We are incredibly grateful to our investors for supporting the future of VAST. With their help, we are providing amazing opportunities and experiences for creators and the fans who support them.”

The completion of this raise enables VAST to put the finishing touches on their next product, VAST 2.0, the first-ever ‘engage-to-earn’ decentralized NFT platform, also known as EngageFi™. With VAST 2.0, creators can drop NFTs that will deliver direct value to fans who engage with their content. Details about VAST 2.0 will be announced in the coming weeks.

Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder and COO of Polygon, said,

“As the metaverse phenomenon grows, the potential for VAST, which is creating a celebrity metaverse, is huge. The exciting news about this private round comes on the heels of VAST, built on leading decentralized blockchain Polygon, securing a credit card integration onto their platform – the first for any platform on Polygon. With this new integration, VAST users can purchase MATIC, Polygon’s digital currency, directly with their credit card to purchase NFTs.”

Hubertus Thonhauser, partner at GHAF Capital and chairman of the Tezos Foundation Council, said,

“VAST is one of the most exciting investments I’ve made in the past three years. I can’t wait to see this platform, which cares so much about creating a better economy for artists, build a new rewards ecosystem including creators, collectors and media.”
