Web3 AI-Powered OP3N Raises $28M for One-Stop-Shop Superapp

OP3N, a web3 AI-powered platform, has raised $28 million in Series A funding to develop its chat-based product, Superapp, which aims to bridge the gap between Web 2.0 and web3 by implementing blockchain and decentralized technologies into Web 2.0-friendly interfaces, and offers NFT-gated experiences for artists and creators to offer fans. Investors include Animoca Brands, Dragonfly Capital, and Warner Music Interactive.

❗ Why It Matters

OP3N is working to create a one-stop-shop platform for creators, chats, and commerce, similar to Web 2.0 platforms, but powered by web3 technologies. This funding round signals the growing interest in the intersection of chat, commerce, and blockchain technology, which could disrupt existing industries.

📊 By the Numbers

The $28 million raised in Series A funding brings OP3N's total funding to $38 million. The Series A was raised at a $100 million valuation.

🎤 Founder Feedback:

“We’re here to build a product that I believe will hopefully in two years become the decentralized Facebook, YouTube, Spotify or WhatsApp for web3,” said Jaeson Ma, co-CEO of OP3N.
