Genesis Vision Seeks to Raise $1M in Equity Round at $10M Valuation

Three years after reeling in $2.8 million in fresh capital, Genesis ‎Vision is raising another $1 million in equity funding as it seeks to strengthen its balance sheet to accelerate growth and set up for scale.
The company, which operates a decentralized trust management platform ‎built on blockchain technology and smart contracts, is currently offering 10 percent in equity at a $10 million pre-money valuation.

So far, this project has been funded by the founders’ personal investments and through an initial coin offering conducted in 2017. Genesis Vision ICO aimed to raise $33 million, but reached just $2.83 million.
Despite raising less than expected, the company has continued to develop its offering which currently encompasses a social trading platform, asset management, and a network of brokers and exchanges from both cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets.
The company invited both institutional and private investors to take part in this fundraising round with a minimal investment amount set at $25,000 for those participating in the financing.
