Movement Labs eyes $100m funding round at $3b valuation

San Francisco-based blockchain developer team Movement Labs is set to close a $100 million funding round as the company seeks fresh capital amid a resurgent crypto market. The Series B round will value the blockchain developer behind Movement, an integrated blockchain network and layer 2 on Ethereum ( ETH ), at $3 billion, Reuters reported on Jan. 8. Crypto-focused venture capital firm CoinFund led the financing round, with participation from London-based investor Brevan Howard. Investors in the round are expected to receive both equity stakes and Movement ( MOVE ) tokens. Movement’s significant capital raise highlights growing interest from the investing world in crypto startups. Key drivers include easing regulatory pressure, particularly as the U.S. embraces a more pro-crypto environment, alongside bullish market sentiment. Macro factors such as interest rate cuts have also encouraged venture capital firms to back blockchain innovation with sizable investments.
