Immutable, the Australian Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) startup has recently announced about raising a fresh Series C funding round.

The NFT startup raised US$ 2 million in the funding round, which was led by Temasek, which is an investment company based in Singapore.

Immutable: A continuously emerging Blockchain firm

This new funding round values the company at $2.5 Billion. These new funds might be utilized in Immutable’s expansion globally and the development of its gaming studio and Immutable X.

Immutable X is a layer two platform based on the Ethereum blockchain. Transactions on this platform are comparatively cheaper and faster than the ones on Ethereum’s own mainnet. 

Immutable also creates and publishes their own NFT games. And competitive card game Gods Unchained was among the first significant crypto games and has shifted from Ethereum’s mainnet to Immutable X. The firm further plans to publish the upcoming mobile action game Guild of Guardians. 

The largest NFT marketplace, Opensea, Tiktok, and GameStop, are the entities building on Immutable X.

The Crypto industry and concepts like Metaverse and NFTs have been witnessing numerous investments by large venture investors, celebrities, and blue-chip companies. It seems like these entities are ready to bet on the potential of cryptocurrencies and the ever-emerging market for Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). 

NFT games witnessed a surge last year with the emergence of Axie Infinity and other players. And have lately gained the confidence of a lot of sectors, with more and more entities and companies getting continuously involved in the industry. It is to look forward to how these fascinating concepts emerge more in the future.
