ENVELOP receives investment from Animoca Brands to build a protocol providing vault and oracle features for NFTs

22 October 2021. ENVELOP, a cross-chain NFT protocol announced that it has secured “investments” from Animoca Brands, the global leader in blockchain gaming and NFTs. This cooperation will allow ENVELOP to collaborate with certain of Animoca Brands’ subsidiaries, projects, and partners to release NFTs with expanded functionality that will set them apart from most other offerings in the rapidly evolving industry.

The ENVELOP protocol uses a cross-chain system that allows an NFT to be used as a static or dynamic vault for storing cryptocurrencies or other NFTs. This feature gives users the ability to add unique collateral and royalty settings to their NFTs. Users can also apply the ENVELOP Oracle as a tool to assess and evaluate NFTs. ENVELOP protocol has been created to provide an effective solution to address existing NFT marketplace issues on evaluation/devaluation, liquidity, and the lack of advanced royalty settings.

“We are glad that Animoca Brands has joined the list of ENVELOP “investors”, and we are confident that Animoca Brands’ support will allow us to accelerate the development of our protocol and its implementation,” said Alexander Shedogubov, CEO of ENVELOP. “We believe that the NFT industry is still at the beginning of its growth and in order to become more mature, it is necessary to show users all the remarkable things that can be accomplished with NFTs.”

Yat Siu, the executive chairman and co-founder of Animoca Brands, said: “We see great potential in the ENVELOP protocol and in the use of wrapped NTFs in the gaming industry, and we believe that these technologies will contribute to the emergence of new mechanics and use cases that will improve adoption of GameFi.”

ENVELOP has received support from a number of prominent “investors” including Waterdrip Capital, YBB Foundation, LucidBlue Ventures, LD Capital, Damo Labs, Lancer Capital, Cypher Ventures, and others. ENVELOP products will become available for the public later this month
