On February 28, Optimum announced the completion of angel round financing, with investors including Polychain CTO, founder of DeFiance Capital, CEO of Bitget, Wormhole, Polygon, and managing partner of Jump Crypto. Optimum was co-founded by Professor Muriel Médard, Dean of the NEC Department of Computer Science at MIT, Dr. Kishori Konwar, and Kent Lin, President of the Harvard Blockchain Association. It is based on the research results of MIT Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) to create the world's first full-chain scaling solution - the high-performance memory of the world's computers. Optimum provides high-performance memory infrastructure for L1/L2 blockchains and node operators, including P2P data communication layer and decentralized memory layer (deRAM), breaking through blockchain scalability bottlenecks for fast data transfer, efficient storage and real-time access. The financing will be used to accelerate product development and bring infrastructure upgrades to the Web3 ecosystem.
