Dapper Labs was conceived in 2017 and founded in 2018 on the thesis that crypto enables much more than just currency. We saw a world where crypto technology is as integral to daily life and the average business as the internet is, a core part of applications that everyone uses every day. Crypto networks enable a better digital future for humanity. For the first time, developers can write software applications that let individuals can own their own data, digital assets, and online identities irrevocably; where creators and IP owners can build for their communities and own the relationship they help create; where businesses of any kind can rely on open access to software systems and any customers that might want to use their product. In other words, crypto enables a world where the most important parts of the software we rely on for our everyday lives is in our own control, running on networks that anyone can access and build on, that everyone can verify and trust, and that no-one can censor, block, or gate-keep. Software by the people, for the people.
We have raised over $600M from leading and notable investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Coatue, Union Square Ventures, Venrock, Google Ventures (GV), Samsung, and the founders of Dreamworks, Reddit, Coinbase, Zynga, and AngelList, among others.
