Acala, Manta Network and seven other Polkadot parachain teams have partnered to launch a $250 million aUSD Ecosystem Fund

Acala, Manta Network and seven other Polkadot parachain teams have partnered to launch a $250 million aUSD Ecosystem Fund to support early-stage startups building applications with strong stablecoin use cases on any Polkadot or Kusama parachain. 

Kenny Li, Core Contributor and Cofounder of the Manta Network says, “we’re excited to be supporting the aUSD Ecosystem Fund and look forward to integrating privacy into the emerging use cases and projects coming out of it. With Polkadot’s native interoperability, every new idea launching in the ecosystem is another value add to all parachains’ “

The fund participants are seeking Solidity or Substrate-based applications driving yield or utility for aUSD, including money markets, DEXs, derivatives, asset management, DAOs, payments, and other use cases. The participating projects will grow aUSD as a building block in the Polkadot ecosystem with hundreds of applications which will be able to thrive over the coming decades as Web3 proliferates into the global economy.

 

Polkadot’s Multi-Chain Economy

The Polkadot ecosystem focuses on a decentralized and shared security model, which allows any parachain to get plug-and-play security, as well as native, trustless cross-chain functionality. Parachain teams are now beginning to work together on initiatives to kickstart cross-chain interactions. Here is a list of innovative companies and blockchain projects making that future a reality.
