Crypto Startup Superstate Raises $82.5 Million
Superstate, a company developing solutions for integrating traditional financial assets into blockchain, has announced the raising of $82.5 million in a funding round. The investment was led by venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz and Tiger Global.
