These past two months were arguably our biggest of 2021, and it’s no wonder why. At the end of November, we completed our Series A funding round. In December we conducted the Solv IVO, which generated over 2 million BUSD in trade volume and caused the floor price of our Voucher to hit 4.3 times its opening price! We onboarded some amazing projects via our Seahorse Initiative, and dropped Solv v2.5, vastly improving the user experience for projects and investors alike.

📰Activities & News

Our IVO!

On December 13th, we minted 1,000,000 $SOLV into Vouchers and issued them on Solv Marketplace and Binance NFT. And we saw incredible results:

  • Floorprice of SOLV Voucher on Binance NFT: 4.3 times the opening price
  • Trade volume : over 2million USD on Binance NFT and Solv platform
  • Addresses that have interacted with Solv Protocol: 5665

Series A

We completed our Series A, which saw us raise $4 million, and which was led by Blockchain Capital, Sfermion and gumi Cryptos Capital.

🧰Dev Updates:

Solv v2.5 was released:

With the launch of our IVO marketplace, projects are able to plan their own Voucher sale according to their specific needs. Retail investors can participate in allocation investment directly, as well as buy or sell locked token allocations in the secondary marketplace before tokens are released. v2.5 gets us closer to our goal of facilitating a stronger relationship between projects and their early community members.

An FAQ for the SOLV IVO, the first IVO:

What a past couple of months, and indeed, what a year! We are so grateful for everyone’s continued support and are mighty proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish. But of course, we’re only getting started, so cheers everyone and here’s to looking forward to a bright and successful 2022🥂

About Solv Protocol

Founded in 2020, Solv Protocol is a decentralized marketplace for the minting and trading of NFTs that represent financial equity and complex ownership, also known as “Vouchers”. Solv aims to resolve one of the most pressing problems in the emerging field of DeFi — the absence of an efficient and flexible tool to express complicated financial contracts. And by bringing Vouchers to the table, Solv offsets that gap.
