In addition to funding, INIT Capital disclosed ongoing efforts to forge collaborations with several decentralized exchanges and protocols, though specific partners remain undisclosed as of press time.
Based on Mantle Network, INIT Capital apparently wants to solve the problem of liquidity fragmentation, saying while the defi landscape evolves continuously to accommodate diverse borrowing use cases, the architecture of money markets “has not correspondingly evolved.”
