Sofia, Bulgaria, February 28th, 2025, ChainwireIndustry-Leading Investment Firms To Validate and Support Decentralization of Acki Nacki BlockchainGOSH, the core developer behind Acki Nacki, has announced today the successful completion of its pre-launch Node Sale, securing backing from validators including Kingsway Capital, Blockchain.com, Hack VC, K5 Global, and Original Capital. As a result of the network’s recently launched decentralized starter protocol, Gossip Ignite, the Acki Nacki mainnet will go live once a critical mass of node operators are active.Acki Nacki is an asynchronous blockchain protocol that reaches probabilistic consensus in two communication steps. At the heart of GOSH’s vision in supporting Acki Nacki is solving blockchain’s most fundamental technical challenge: transaction speed, scalability, and time to finality.“The network’s Node Owners all share the Acki Nacki vision from beginning to end,” said Mitja Goroshevsky, GOSH founder and Acki Nacki architect, leading the team who spent the 4 years prior building the technology stack for TON blockchain. “The values behind the tokenomics, how we see decentralization, as well as technology, adoption, and how we go to market, are supported thoroughly by all network participants. This level of collaboration defines the future of the decentralized world.”With a community of over 5 million users in testnet, Acki Nacki is primed to support use cases that include payments, gaming economies, IoT networks, and AI applications. The early ecosystem already includes Popits, an on-chain content-sharing platform, and Die Last, a Web3 real-time strategy game running entirely on-chain.A diverse group of aligned validators and Acki Nacki’s approach ensures the network emerges organically — owned and secured by its decentralized community from the first block

Humanity Protocol raised $30 million in a Seed Round at a $1 billion valuation to develop a zero-knowledge Worldcoin competitor. The funding, led by Kingsway Capital with participation from Animoca Brands, Blockchain.com, Hashed, and Shima Capital, will accelerate hiring and product development ahead of their public testnet launch in late 2024. The project aims to establish Self-Sovereign Identity using a Proof of Humanity consensus mechanism and a palm scanning app.
