RockX receives $6mil in successful Series A funding led by Amber Group

RockX is proud to announce raising US$6 million in a Series A funding, which places the blockchain tech startup at a valuation of US$30 million. 

This scalability push comes after a period of sustained and healthy growth both for RockX and the wider staking market. In 2022, RockX doubled its business, reaching managed assets to just under US$1 billion in value. Having added partnerships with crucial protocols like Lido and ssv.network, these affiliations will place RockX at the forefront of staking innovations and provide a solid validator backbone for mainstream PoS solutions alike. 

This unique positioning was recognised in the Series A funding round by investors led by Amber Group, a leading digital asset platform, along with several crypto space trailblazers such as Matrixport, Primitive Ventures, FBG Capital, IMO Ventures, Alpha CW, Megastake and Draper Dragon. 

Amber Group CEO Michael Wu highlighted the immense value generated by RockX’s groundbreaking approach to staking protocols, and the way it slots in perfectly with the group’s existing portfolio of institutional services. He described the funds invested as not only a commitment to sustaining the startup’s ambitions for growth – which are synergistic to Amber Group’s long term strategy – but also a sign of faith in RockX’s team and leadership. 

Other key investors were attracted by the leading role the company has taken in providing an accessible gateway to staking finance. John Ge, Co-Founder of Matrixport, underlined how this brings unrivalled potential for growth in the space. 

Ultimately, what gained support from investors such as Dovey Wan, Founding Partner at Primitive Ventures, was the team’s longevity in the space and robust stance ‘through many market cycles’ — making RockX a ‘rare find’. The approach RockX has had to non-custodial staking and reliance on sophisticated on-chain data products are seen by Series A backers as key feature for this space. 

Zhuling Chen, who acts as the Chief Executive Officer of RockX, put it plainly but convincingly: 

‘The trust and confidence our investors have placed in us makes us uniquely positioned to become the leading global staking and data services provider’.
