One of today’s biggest trends in web3 investing is gaming. As the founder of web3 venture capital fund Shima Capital, this is something I know all too well. That’s why over thirty percent of Shima’s investment portfolio, of which there’s over 180 companies, is in gaming. One of the most recent additions to make a splash is MYSTiC GAMES.

Shima Capital is thrilled to be in business with Orb Labs, who recently announced that they’d just completed a $4.5 million raise led by Bain Capital with Shima also contributing.

Orb Labs is focused on making blockchains capable of interacting with each other, allowing developers to create products and services that incorporate the benefits of multiple blockchains at the same time. Their products will offer a less expensive and faster, more secure alternative to existing protocols trying to solve the same problems.

In the realm of technology, there exists a unique allure to being a trailblazer. MSafe, or Momentum Safe, has pioneered the development of the inaugural multi-signature, non-custodial digital assets management solution for Aptos. Shima Capital is honored to have participated in MSafe’s recent seed funding round of $5 million and eagerly anticipates their forthcoming endeavors.
