Funding supports an AI Launchpad and an AI liquidity manager as the convergence of AI and blockchain gathers pace Dubai, UAE, June 19 th , 2025 – Units.Network , a leading blockchain ecosystem built on the Waves Protocol, has closed a USD 10 million round led by Nimbus Capital . The capital will expand core infrastructure and fast-track intelligence-driven products slated for phased release later this year. The fresh funding will scale validator capacity, deepen cross-chain liquidity rails, and activate Units’ AI roadmap, which centres on an AI Launchpad and an AI Liquidity Manager designed to provide builders with more efficient market tools directly on-chain. Commenting on the raise, Sasha Ivanov, Founder of Units.Network, said, “This investment allows us to place practical artificial intelligence at the centre of our ecosystem. The Launchpad lowers barriers for innovators, and the liquidity manager will create fairer and more efficient markets for builders and traders.” Nimbus Capital, a global investment firm backed by In On Capital, a wealth management firm with USD 1.2 billion in AUM commented, “We’ve been tracking the AI–blockchain convergence closely, and Units.Network stood out for delivering real onchain utility,” said Robert Baker , Managing Partner at Nimbus Capital. “The Launchpad and liquidity manager are foundational rails for next-gen agents and autonomous markets.” Analysts value the blockchain-AI segment at about USD 0.7 billion in 2025 and expect it to approach USD 1.9 billion by 2029, a compound annual growth rate of roughly twenty-eight percent. Broader spending on blockchain technology is forecasted to rise from USD 20.1 billion in 2024 to nearly USD 249 billion by 2029, as enterprise adoption accelerates. Investor interest is mirrored on the retail side, where AI-linked crypto tokens have grown from a combined market value of USD 2.7 billion to more than USD 26 billion in the past year, outpacing bitcoin’s performance over the same period. The funds raised follow the recently announced community-run Units DAO introduction of performance grants for applications that attract at least USD one million in total value locked to the network. The funding will support the grant programme initiatives to ensure a robust pipeline of projects ahead of the Launchpad’s public debut.
