Angel investor Sim Jian Hong led the round, which also saw participation from institutional investors such as QCP Capital and Gecko Ventures.

Founded in early 2021, Chain Debrief aims to inform, educate, and connect the global investment community through its editorial work, video series, and crypto communities. Its Pulse platform tracks decentralized applications activities across various blockchains.

The company plans to use the funding to expand its platform and continue building crypto-related products.

β€œWe aim to challenge the narrative and educate the public on crypto investment. The team at Chain Debrief firmly believes that crypto will fundamentally change the way the world works in the near future, and we are at the forefront of this financial revolution,” said founder and managing director Jacky Yap.

Other investors in the round include:
