Creating an open-source Internet of Value

Particle B is a startup accelerator dedicated to incubating projects built on blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and the Crypto.com Chain, with a high potential to bring disruptive impact.

ABOUT US

Particle B was inspired by the rise of DeFi, and our desire to tackle the common challenges faced by the sector.

In 2020, decentralized finance (DeFi) grew at an astonishing pace, with total value locked close to $15 billion at year-end. However, DeFi has its shortcomings - common user complaints include difficulty in understanding the UI, high transaction costs & long confirmation times during network congestion, among others.

Leveraging Gary Or’s experience as co-founder and CTO of Crypto.com, Particle B focuses on incubating DeFi projects built on Crypto.com Chain - a blockchain that aspires to deliver fast and cheap transactions. The team is also evaluating projects for the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks, which are two of the earliest and best-established networks.

OUR VISION

An open-source Internet of Value, where no single entity owns the network, while everyone benefits from it equitably.

OUR MISSION

To build and scale the infrastructure that enables and supports the open-source Internet of Value.
