Sony’s $13M Gamble: Can Startale Save Us from Blockchain Boredom?
Let us not forget their previous dalliances: $3.5 million from Sony in 2023, and another $3.5 million in 2024 from UOB Venture Management and Samsung Next. These sums, like crumbs thrown to a starving crowd, have now culminated in a grand total of $20 million. Twenty million! Enough to fund a small revolution, or perhaps a particularly lavish funeral for the dreams of the common man. With this latest infusion of capital, Startale’s blockchain development efforts are said to be “strengthened.” Strengthened, or merely bloated? Only time, that merciless judge, will tell.
