OKX Ventures Announces Investment in Celestia Labs

HONG KONG, Oct. 16, 2023OKX Ventures, the investment arm of leading crypto exchange and Web3 technology company OKX, today announced its participation in Celestia Lab‘s Series B funding round.

Celestia is the first modular blockchain network, meaning developers can use Celestia as a base layer for consensus and data functions, and then choose a virtual machine, such as Ethereum, Solana, zero-knowledge roll-ups or any other compatible smart contract execution layers, to build and deploy their own new blockchain. This contrasts with previous generations of blockchain infrastructure, in which Layer-1 chains perform consensus, data functions and execution altogether – a structure Celestia calls ‘monolithic.’

Celestia is also expected to be the first blockchain network to use Data Availability Sampling (DAS) when it goes live later this year. DAS is a lighter, faster way to verify blocks without requiring nodes to download all the data in a block. By allowing nodes to verify smaller, randomly selected data within a block, Celestia intends to avoid the scalability tradeoffs which have historically held back Layer-1s to date.

OKX Ventures Founder Dora Yue said: “For the sake of scalability, we see a trend towards modularity in the blockchain industry. Celestia has pioneered a modular approach that is a completely different paradigm when compared to traditional Layer-1 chains, giving developers greater customization capabilities and potentially leading blockchain infrastructure into a new era.”

Developers can receive several benefits by using Celestia as a base layer for deploying modular blockchains. These benefits include higher scalability, shared security for interoperability between apps, and the flexibility to choose between execution environments including Ethereum and Solana.

Bobnet has already secured EUR 15 million in previous investments and is now seeking an additional EUR 50 million to expand its solutions to the Middle East, as part of the company’s global expansion, as the region’s retail industry is fast developing and embracing technological innovations.

Leading innovator in retail technology solutions, Bobnet Group, is thrilled to make its latest regional expansion announcement at this year’s GITEX Global in Dubai, where the company is set to showcase its cutting-edge retail innovation products and unveil its recent milestones. The company has developed a breakthrough digital Chain Management System aimed at streamlining operations in the retail sector, and this new investment will enable them to offer their solutions on a global scale.

The Bobnet venture startup has been working since 2018 on a series of hardware and software automation solutions, developed to overcome problems of implementing and managing large retail chains. The company has succeeded in creating a chain of 120 automated selling food and grocery free checkout machines placed in a real- life use case market, whilst testing and optimizing its advanced hardware and software solutions, to create a fully functional management system of such retail chains.

“The Bobnet Chain Management system is the first software on the market able to conduct by itself operations for retail chains with thousands and millions of sales and logistic units, which are able to communicate with a cloud based infrastructure through IoT means. Thus, with our technology, creating a live physical retail chain, which is scattered in space and still operates as a single body in a fully automated mode, is now possible by almost fully eliminating the need for human involvement in the process.”, explains Victor Popusoi, Bobnet‘s founder.

Stellar Ventures and Cypress Growth Capital Commit to Fueling the Future of Robotics Software

BOULDER, Colo., Oct. 12, 2023 — PickNik Robotics, “The Unstructured Robotics Company,” proudly announces a major milestone in its mission to bring robot arms out of factories and into our everyday lives. The company has just raised $2 million in a pre-seed investment round led by Stellar Ventures and Cypress Growth Capital, positioning itself as the dominant force in redefining the robotics industry through its innovative software platforms. The investment augments PickNik’s existing $5M in non-dilutive SBIR funding contracts with NASA JSC, NASA Ames, and Space Force.

This funding will be used to further develop their powerful robotics platform MoveIt Studio, which enables any developer or engineer to create advanced applications with robot arms. MoveIt Studio is unique in that it tackles a new and fast-growing robotics market segment: robots outside of the traditional manufacturing domain. MoveIt Studio is already being used by many companies for advanced applications like Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) that leverage mobile robot arms for in-situ bin picking, explosive ordnance disposal for SWAT teams, and next-gen space applications such as autonomous cargo unloading from space station re-supply capsules.

Dave Coleman, CEO of PickNik, expressed his enthusiasm for the pre-seed investment, saying, “This investment marks a pivotal moment in our journey from a bootstrapped company that could only innovate incrementally. We’re now committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with robot arms faster. With Stellar Ventures and Cypress Growth Capital by our side, we have the resources and support to fully commercialize our powerful platform that enables developers everywhere to build advanced robot arm applications with less risk.”

PickNik’s unique vision makes advanced robotics accessible through both open source and open core software. Their flagship software MoveIt Studio is built on their original, highly popular open source MoveIt software that continues to be one of the top motion planning and manipulation frameworks globally. By embracing open source principles, PickNik empowers its customers to reduce R&D costs significantly and collaborate with well known de facto standards.

PickNik consistently demonstrates its leadership tackling the most challenging problems in robotics across many industries, including space, subsea, surgical, energy, AgTech, FoodTech, and personal robots. With an unparalleled commitment to solving robotics challenges outside of factories, PickNik has earned the trust and recognition from industry giants including Google, Amazon, Johnson & Johnson, Samsung, Hyundai, NASA, Sierra Space, Blue Origin, and many more.

“The robotics industry is rapidly evolving, and PickNik is at the forefront of innovation. We see immense potential in their ability to develop advanced solutions that bridge the gap between terrestrial and space robotics,” said Matt Patterson at Stellar Ventures.

Investors are drawn to PickNik’s exceptional capabilities. Their dexterous manipulator control has earned the company praise from esteemed organizations like NASA (whose multiple SBIR programs have historically funded PickNik). “There are few others in the industry of robotics with the capability of PickNik, especially capabilities as expansive as their abilities with dexterous manipulator control,” stated a robotics engineer at NASA Johnson Space Center.

“As use cases for robotics applications become more complex, PickNik’s expertise and track record of solving the most difficult robotics problems is highly differentiated in this $230B market. With MoveIt Studio, PickNik is able to leverage that experience and deliver it to an even broader customer base.” said Pat McCaffrey, Partner at Cypress Growth Capital.

PickNik is proud to be a leader of the Robot Operating System movement. The company created ROS drivers for many popular robots used globally including Universal Robotics, Kinova, ABB, and Motiv Space Systems. As a 100% robot-arm agnostic company, PickNik works with a wide range of robot brands and types, from custom hardware to off-the-shelf solutions, catering to the specific needs of its customers.

This pre-seed investment allows PickNik to further revolutionize the unstructured robotics software space with their MoveIt Studio product, and solidify its position as an industry leader, poised for a future filled with exciting possibilities.
