Blueberry Protocol: Decentralized Prime Brokerage Terminal Company Secures $2.5 Million

By Amit Chowdhry ● Jun 4, 2024

Blueberry Protocol, a decentralized prime brokerage terminal, announced $2.5 million in strategic funding led by WSC and Varys Capital. The other participants in this investment round include SNZ Capital, White Star Capital, Alchemix DAO, Aquanow, members of Dewhales, members of DCD, GateCap Ventures, Nayt Trading, and MonkeVentures.

Blueberry offers decentralized access to generalized leverage for DeFion Ethereum, providing enhanced opportunities through advanced risk management and higher leverage than traditional prime brokerage. And by integrating transparent risk management tools with a sophisticated leverage framework, Blueberry seeks to expand accessibility, boost capital efficiency, and improve profitability for a wide variety of DeFi users.

The DeFi sector has experienced significant growth in recent months. And the recent approval of Ethereum ETFs has sparked a renewed interest in the space from traditional finance, positioning Blueberry to lead this new wave of institutional DeFi adoption.

As institutional participation increases, flexible prime brokerage services become essential for enabling secure and efficient trading, providing liquidity, and managing portfolios in the crypto market. And Blueberry Protocol caters to both conservative whales and high-stakes degens.

This funding will be used for team expansion and its increased security budget. Blueberry also offers early access to its native BLB tokens via Fjord Foundry and PancakeSwap events. And these events are crucial milestones in decentralizing the Blueberry protocol and fostering a strong, active community.
