Pine Platform Raises 3m In Private Round Funding For Its Latest Expansion

May xx, 2022, Singapore – Pine Platform, the Pine Protocol, the DeFi, permissionless NFT mortgage DAO announces 3m in private funding for its latest round of expansion. The leading investors include Amber Group, and Republic, with participation by Almeda Research, Shima Capital, Impossible Finance, and Gate Ventures, as well as Sino Global and Spartan Group

The Pine Platform has expanded its offering in the crypto space, to include Pine Pieces, staking an NFT collection of over 6969 unique hand drawings. That is to include the Pine Protocol, which is a mortgage system for NFTs, allowing members to “Pine Now, Pay Later.” The latest features enhance the Pine Now, Pay Later system, which provides users with instant liquidity for their NFT while providing flexible financing terms.

The Pine Pieces NFT collection comes with its own utility, such as receiving airdrops and private discord channels, especially for users of Pine Pieces. Since the Alpha launch of the Pine Protocol and the product launch in April 2022, the Pine Platform has facilitated 2m in lending. This new round of funding will go towards the expansion in the areas of smart contract engineers, marketing, and operations, just to name some of the areas covered.

“We have built the Pine Protocol not only to solve the current problem that it is challenging for NFT holders to access liquidity seamlessly and efficiently. We are building Pine for a more ambitious mission – to enable the protocol for the future when asset-backed financing, a $4.5 trillion industry, can be moved fully on-chain”, says Alex “Azure” Ho, co-founder of Pine. “In this scenario, the asset ownership will be represented by NFTs, loan terms will be programmed into smart contracts, and payment will be done in cryptocurrencies. We are working towards the future where Pine Protocol serves as the backbone of asset-backed financing.”

“We believe NFTs have a multi-decade growth runway and will unlock tremendous value for artists, builders, creators, curators, and owners. But we are still early, and infrastructure needs to be built out. Pine’s mission to provide DeFi primitives for NFTs will be a critical piece of the puzzle. We are extremely excited to partner with the Pine team and look forward to working with them to accelerate the emergence of an open, inclusive, and flourishing creator economy,” says Wang Jian, Head of Principal Investment of Amber Group.

The funds will be used to further the development of Pine Platform, Pine Protocol and Pine Pieces, as well as expansion of the multi-chain support of Solana, Binance Smart Chain, Avalanche, and Fantom, to name just a few.
