Mars Finance
Founder: Fred Wang
Mars Finance launched in February to provide free and publicly accessible hosting services for blockchain and cryptocurrency reference material, market segments, and online blockchain communities.
Four months later, the Beijing-based company announced it had raised $51.3 million in a Series A round led by Ceyuan Ventures and Huobi Global Ecosystem Fund to help Mars Finance become a globally-accessible blockchain information service platform.
Mars Finance in August hosted its first U.S.-based conference to expose many of China's top blockchain and cryptocurrency projects, developers, and thought leaders to the US market and US investors, and promote collaboration between projects and leaders in both markets. And the company in October released Mars Finance U.S. Version to become a truly international blockchain service platform.
