BlockBeats News, January 6th, according to official sources, ZenChain has successfully completed a $8.5 million funding round, led by Watermelon Capital, DWF Labs, and Genesis Capital.
At the same time, before the TGE, ZenChain also received a commitment of $1.5 million in angel investment. The newly raised funds will be used to accelerate core protocol development, expand validators and ecosystem participation, support marketing and ecosystem building initiatives, and prepare for the upcoming TGE and subsequent mainnet milestones.
ZenChain aims to provide infrastructure for cross-chain interactions, enabling Bitcoin and EVM-based assets to operate within a unified, secure framework. The network focuses on capital efficiency, validator consensus security, and long-term sustainability, rather than short-term speculation.
