Anboto Labs Reveals $3M Funding and Platform LaunchHong Kong-based crypto trade execution specialist Anboto Labs has successfully secured $3 million in funding and unveiled an institutional-grade non-custodial trading platform.Investors who participated in the funding round included Kronos Ventures, Cherry Crypto, Mechanism Capital, XBTO, and Singaporean digital assets financial services platform Matrixport, contributing to this funding round during the third quarter of this year. Anboto Labs, known for its crypto trading execution tools, has been on a steady growth trajectory, having raised $1.9 million last year, elevating its valuation to $35 million, according to Guillaume Forcade, the company’s co-founder.Photo by Csaba Nagy on PixabayCrypto trade executionFrom its inception, Anboto Labs has consistently generated revenue, and now it’s ready to introduce its execution platform to a broader audience of experienced traders. The public launch of the platform will enable Anboto to scale up to support thousands of traders simultaneously.The newly released platform underwent an extensive 18-month closed beta phase, during which it processed $4 billion in trading volume across 20 exchanges and blockchain networks. Anboto Labs is attempting to distinguish itself in the market with its execution algorithms, including TWAP, VWAP, and iceberg, which are designed to optimize pricing and execution quality.TWAP, or time-weighted average price, can be incorporated into a trading algorithm with a view towards optimizing a trade’s average price while executing the trade over a predefined time period. In recent days, the project’s Head of Quantitative Research, Suren Markosov, took to blogging site Medium to outline how Anboto’s TWAP algorithm is geared up to save on trading costs. According to Markosov, the firm’s approach could lead to traders saving between two and eight basis points in costs.VWAP, or volume-weighted average price, can be used to filter out the “noise” in the market to determine the real buy/sell price that exists within the market within a given period. Meanwhile, an iceberg order is executed such that it is sliced up into smaller orders. In this way, the impact cost of overall trade execution is minimized.Focus on securityAnboto Labs also places a strong emphasis on security. It allows users to sign up without the need for a time-consuming Know Your Customer (KYC) process, offering a streamlined experience. Additionally, the platform provides multi-factor authentication and the option to whitelist IP addresses, further enhancing security measures.Brett Sun, an investor with Cherry Crypto, took to X (formerly Twitter) to recognize Anboto’s platform launch. Sun stated:“Big strides from @guiviaje and the team at @anboto_labs. They’ve come out of beta to democratize access to professional-grade trading tools for all traders.”WOO Network integrationEarlier this week, Anboto announced the integration of Taipei-based liquidity provider WOO Network into its platform. Forcade said that the integration will enable the firm to offer even more efficient trading tools to its users.In the coming months, Anboto Labs plans to expand its trading features with the aim of democratizing access to institutional-grade execution tools for all crypto traders. With a track record and fresh funding behind it, Anboto Labs is setting itself up to potentially make a significant impact in the cryptocurrency trading space, offering traders the tools they need for success in the crypto market.

2023 has been a year of significant growth for Com2uS Holdings subsidiary Com2uS Platform, which has gained recognition for leveraging blockchain technology to bring content-focused services to users around the world. "This year, Com2uS Platform has achieved high growth in all fields," said CEO Choi Seok-won, according to an article by Korean news outlet Kuki News. "In the coming year, we will not only serve as the technology hub of the Com2uS Group but also actively engage in other projects to become the center of the global Web3 ecosystem."Photo by Pawel Chu on UnsplashExpanding horizonsIndeed, the firm’s subsidiaries, including the blockchain-based game development service Hive and NFT marketplace X-PLANET, have been leading various business ventures. The former has signed contracts with 40 games from 27 gaming companies this year alone. In terms of newly signed game titles, this marks a 307% year-on-year growth. The latter, on the other hand, ranked first in sales among domestic competitors last month, arguably driven by its collaboration with Toei Animation and Korean publishing company Daewon Media on a special NFT drop celebrating the 35th anniversary of Choushinsei Flashman’s Korean release. Choushinsei Flashman is a popular Japanese live-action superhero series that aired in the 1980s, earning fans all over South Korea. In line with these efforts to pursue projects with trendy topics, the company also teamed up with South Korean game developer ArumGames to create a game utilizing Com2uS’ Bungopang IP, which will be launched next year.  Strategic alliancesCom2uS Platform's global expansion has also seen tangible results, such as a recent business partnership with Bangkok-based marketing and game service company SHIN-A, which will play a role in its foothold in Thailand, a key emerging market. Under the agreement, SHIN-A has committed to establishing a Hive team in Thailand and serving as an official global reseller. The platform has also been active in the public sector, signing contracts with various public organizations such as the Seoul Business Agency, Gwangju Information and Content Agency and Korea Creative Content Agency to train practitioners in a wide range of fields across IT and entertainment, such as the internet, AI, big data, fintech, metaverse and gaming. These projects are expected to lead to the discovery of young talent and facilitate more opportunities for collaboration with gaming companies.
