The RISE x Kaito Launchpad is only 1D left, and ngl I’m hyped cuz even Vitalik in the mix 😂 @rise_chain already pulled $7.2M from seed + strategic rounds, and now the community round is open ($2M cap, already 40% filled). Entry’s at $200M FDV → last round was $100M, and peers are flexing $500M+ pre-testnet. Rise is positioning as an Ethereum Extension → using Based Rollup architecture (ETH validators handle sequencing) with 3ms latency + 100k TPS. That’s arguably the fastest EVM chain in development. On the investment side: • Entry at $200M FDV (prev $100M, peers >$500M pre-testnet) • Terms: 50% unlock at TGE + 50% in 6m • Backers include Vitalik Buterin, Galaxy Ventures, Finality Capital. Mainnet is scheduled for Q4. NFA, but definitely one of the more differentiated L2 approaches. RISE!
