About

An open-core product that simplifies using the modular stack for developers by streamlining deployments and offering out-of-the-box tooling.

Impact

By reduce complexity around building web3 products for developers, we can improve the apps end-users will have access to. This would lead to apps that are less speculative, and more user friendly

Progress

The latest version makes starting an optimistic rollup very easy, on top of multiple EVM chains. It also integrates a block explorer, and an indexer

Team

During my previous experience as a fintech founder, we've built a product that lets any retailer offer insurance along sold items. I spent a lot of time plumbing legacy system with new ones, in order to deliver product that abstracts complexity.

Funding

No displayed figures preserved for this project.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
