History
2017-2018
We were South Korea’s first Web3 venture builder, raising $12M in funding. With a team of 120 employees, we created 15 blockchain/crypto startups.
2019-2020
Due to the crypto bear market, we had to close several startups, leading to many employees leaving, and ultimately, only three remaining.
2021-2022
We had a new business idea, and issued a token, which was a first for us. Using the financial resources from the token, we created a new team to develop Changer.
2023-
After 3 years of development, Changer was released. We’re now expanding the token ecosystem through partnerships and continuing our efforts as a Web3 product developer.
