The round was led by Polychain Capital and Blockchain Capital, along with Figment Capital, Lightshift Capital, and Galileo.


Moving forward, Quasar will operate as an independent entity after Advanced Blockchain AG’s efforts to accelerate the initial phases of project growth, spearheaded by former project lead and now CEO, Valentin Pletnev. Quasar is now working towards the testnet launch, which is scheduled for the first week of August.  Quasar successfully purchased back the entire intellectual property set that was created along with Advanced Blockchain’s Incubation arm; AB.Labs and settled initial incubation costs for its independence.


"Following our successful seed funding round, we would like to thank our investors for the faith they have shown in us. Quasar is already operating independently and we are grateful for all the support Advanced Blockchain has provided us. We are particularly excited about the upcoming testnet launch and look forward to playing a significant role in shaping the future of DeFi.” -Valentin Pletnev, CEO of Quasar

"Quasar has been operating as an independent entity since May. It's been a pleasure working with Valentin to speed up his original concept, and we wish Quas the best of luck going into the coming testnet and full-feature release.” -Simon Telian, CEO Of Advanced Blockchain AG
