CertiK, a leading blockchain security firm, announced the launch of CertiK Ventures, a new initiative dedicated to supporting the growth of secure on-chain platforms. CertiK Ventures will focus on promoting security-first blockchain projects, investing in promising startups through venture capital funding, and building strong ecosystem partnerships.
“This launch is crucial to our mission of securing the Web3 world,” said Jason Jiang, Chief Business Officer of CertiK. “By combining our security expertise with strategic investments, we aim to accelerate the growth of innovative projects that will shape the future of the industry.”
CertiK Ventures boasts a strong portfolio already, including companies like Pantera Capital, LINE, and Ripple. They will leverage CertiK’s proven security solutions to provide resources and expertise to their portfolio companies, helping them develop and deploy secure blockchain technology.
Founded in 2018, CertiK has established itself as a leader in blockchain security. They have detected over 60,000 vulnerabilities and secured over $380 billion in digital assets for over 4,500 major blockchain projects.
CertiK’s move into venture capital reflects a broader industry trend, as the blockchain space is still in its early stages. The technology is rapidly evolving but has not yet matured into a “cohesive product or experience.” CertiK Ventures aims to play a key role in shaping the future of secure and robust blockchain development.
