ChromaWay’s main offering is Chromia, a platform that combines blockchain with relational databases. It helps developers build decentralized apps for various sectors, such as finance, gaming, and property.

The platform has been used in the creation of popular metaverse games, such as My Neighbor Alice and Mines of Dalarnia. In 2017, it powered a pilot test to put land records in India into a blockchain.

The company was founded by Alex Mizrahi, Henrik Hjelte, Or Perelman, and Iddo Bentov in 2014, making it one of the pioneers of blockchain or Web3 technology.

“We believe that Chromia can become the blockchain standard for gaming applications,” said Dusan Stojanovic, founding partner of the TGV 4 Plus fund, which invested US$5 million in this round.
