 Masa Network, a platform building a zero-knowledge (zk) data network and marketplace, has raised $5.4 million in its seed round, according to an&nbsp;announcement on Tuesday, January 23.
 Anagram, a venture capital platform co-founded by Lily Liu (Solana Foundation President) and Joe Eagan (former Polychain President), led the seed round. Other participants include Digital Currency Group, Avalanche Blizzard Fund, GoldenTree, and OP Crypto among others.
 The seed <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="round" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/round.html">round</a> adds to the $3.5 million Masa raised in a pre-seed funding <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="round" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/round.html">round</a> closed in 2022. With this funding, the platform has now raised a total of $9.2 million.
 Masa plans to use the new capital injection to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="build" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/build.html">build</a> its decentralized <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="network" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/network.html">network</a> for <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="personal" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/personal.html">personal</a> data, which it dubs a “decentralized Google.” Per details published today in a Medium post, Masa expects to launch the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="network" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/network.html">network</a> as a subnet on Avalanche.
 “Masa lets you control and monetize your data on a decentralized marketplace. Own your data, control its use, get paid. The future is data sovereignty. The power is yours with Masa,” Calanthia Mei, co-founder of Masa Network, said.
 Since its launch in August 2022, Masa’s zero-knowledge powered data <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="network" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/network.html">network</a> has been integrated by top crypto projects such as Avalanche, Injective, Celo and QuickSwap.
