Liquid staking protocol Glif has completed a $4.5 million seed round led by Multicoin Capital. The fundraising also attracted participation from Zee Prime Capital, Fintech Collective, Big Brain Holdings, and Protocol Labs. 
The fundraising was completed using a simple agreement for future equity (SAFE) with token warrants, which gives investors the right to receive equity from Glif after certain conditions are met. 
According to the <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2024/02/06/filecoins-liquid-staker-glif-raises-45m-hints-at-token-airdrop/#:~:text=Glif%2C%20one%20of%20its%20longtime,and%20retrieval%20on%20the%20network." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">announcement</a>, this was Filecoin’s first investment in a Filecoin-based project. Filecoin offers a decentralised storage data marketplace, protocol and cryptocurrency, thus playing the role of a store of value for Web3 projects. 
Glif has been one of the long-standing projects in the Filecoin ecosystem, offering a “liquid leasing” setup that allows holders of Filecoin “gas” tokens to earn yield on their staked tokens. 
The company plans to use the fresh capital to expand its liquid-bearing token iFIL as it looks to grow the protocol to 100 million FIL tokens deployed. “Our goal is to get to 100 million FIL deployed to storage providers in a couple of years,” Glif’s founder and CEO, Jonathan Schwartz said in a statement.&nbsp; 
Glif also plans to use some of the funds in security research, according to a post shared on the company’s official X account.
