Love web3? You're going to love Gomu. They've just raised a $5M seed so you can build and grow anything in web3 — apps, dApps, NFT communities and more — better, easier, and faster.

Investor check. Coinbase Ventures, DeFiance Capital and Saison Capital joined in.

• 👼🏻: Carylyne Chan (ex-CEO, CoinMarketCap), Bobby Ong and TM Lee (Co-founders, CoinGecko), Matthew Tan (Founder, Etherscan), Mike Dudas, (General Partner, 6MV), Benedict Chan (VP of Engineering, Chainlink) and more.

😏 How they do it

They build web3 infrastructure like APIs and SDKs, as well as products and services that developers (and people like you and I) can use to create high-quality web3 projects faster!

• An API allows two separate pieces of software (like apps) to access and transfer specific data.
• An SDK is a set of tools, pre-built parts, and instructions to build a certain app or feature.

🧠 For founders and developers

API. Gomu's current API makes it possible to access and present NFT data, so you can do things like:

• Verify who owns a certain NFT.
• List and display a certain NFT collection, with related data like Token ID, price, activity and more.

Then, you can add these features to your project, like your website, app or dApp.

SDK. Gomu's current SDK can allow you to add features like P2P swap or buying and selling in your app or platform! No need to log out or head to another platform.

• Allow P2P swap between NFT holders in-app.
• Integrate buy order or sell order functionalities directly from NFT marketplaces like OpenSea and LooksRare in-app.

📈 Growing an NFT community?

Do more than just Discord! Use Gomu's NFT Hub to build a custom online platform for your community — complete with its own marketplace.

The best part? You can build it in minutes! Here, your members can gather and interact, and you can engage them yourself too.

• Keep the NFT Hub public or token-gated to only verified NFT holders.
• Let members view each others' profiles and NFTs.
• Post events and brand/company stories, allow integrations (with platforms like Discord) and more.
• Allow buying and selling of curated NFT collections.

‍

No more (liquidity) issues. The lack of liquidity is one of the biggest problems for NFT projects. What if no one wants to buy your NFT (at a price you want) when you want to sell it? 🥲

• Liquidity is how quick and easy it is to convert a certain asset into cash or another asset.
• This is terrible for NFT projects and their communities.

So, Gomu has built Collection, a protocol that incentivizes liquidity for your NFT project to grow and benefit your NFT community.

• This will allow NFTs in the project to have more stable prices and help create a healthy market of buyers and sellers of the NFTs.
