11/ With Series A, we expand into a new business pillar by launching @niftyswap_io this fall. Niftyswap is the decentralized marketplace that makes buying, selling, and creating markets for semi-fungible tokens (SFTs) instant, easy, and secure.

12/ #SFTs are perfectly suited for web3 game items, digital fashion, music, and any other virtual good with more than one copy. We believe SFTs will become the most used and traded virtual goods of the web3 era, and Niftyswap’s positioned as the go-to marketplace to trade SFTs.

13/ From our Co-founder and CEO @peterk: "We have always had a long-term vision for the future of web3, and are carefully building complementary products to support the ecosystem. With @0xSequence, we enable builders to create the next generation of Internet experiences;

14/ with @SkyweaverGame, we deliver a fun, strategic, and rich piece of content for gamers to enjoy; and with @niftyswap_io, we enable the seamless exchange of SFTs, which are poised to become some the world's most useful and traded virtual goods."

15/ From five founders working around @peterk’s kitchen table, to now 60+ brilliant and kind teammates spanning 16 countries, with the support of the world’s best investors, gaming companies, and web3 pioneers, we’re honoured to play a monumental role in the realization of web3.

16/ Thank you to every community member, player, builder, user, supporter, teammate, partner, investor, collaborator, and contributor. Together, we're building the new dimension where economies and experiences are fun, accessible, and for the benefit of all participants 💜
