Start-up Alchemy raised another $200 million, nearly tripling the crypto company’s valuation to $10.2 billion.
Less than four months after its last funding round, San Francisco-based Alchemy raised another $200 million investment led by Lightspeed and Silver Lake.
Competition for back-end, blockchain infrastructure has been heating up, with Google and Coinbase entering the space. The $200 million investment was led by Lightspeed and Silver Lake, and Alchemy's previous financing round in late Octobeat $3.5 billion. Earlier investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Coatue and Pantera also participated.
"Everyone's looking for a way to get involved in the space, and what they realized was Alchemy is the backbone for all of these things," Alchemy co-founder and chief technology officer Joe Lau told CNBC in an interview."We still think this is the first inning of Web 3."
