Wakweli announces a strategic partnership with Polygon

Wakweli, the web3 infrastructure protocol that issues certificates of authenticity for non-fungible tokens, has announced a strategic partnership with the Polygon blockchain platform.

In a press release shared with Coinjournal, Wakweli said the partnership enables all digital assets on Polygon to become compliant with the certification system developed by the team.

Each NFT project holder on the chain will also be able to request certificates of authenticity for each of their assets, the team added.

In addition to this, advanced use-case scenarios will also be available to developers via the Wakweli platform and API. Wakweli said it would provide the necessary support to developers and project holders.

As I comment on this latest cryptocurrency newssaid Antoine Sarraute, co-founder of Wakweli;

“Since 2021, when ETH fees skyrocketed, Polygon has established itself as the best chain to produce assets and has performed extremely well since – it is now home to incredible NFT projects. We built Wakweli to create a safer web3 space across all chains, and today we’re excited to partner with Polygon. This will enable Wakweli’s certification power for all Polygon users and unlock a definitive way to combat fraud attempts, creating more trust in this thriving ecosystem.”

Wakweli secures $1.1 million in funding

Wakweli’s partnership with Polygon comes after the protocol secured $1.1 million in funding. The project was able to secure the funds after bringing in a number of early backers, including VCs and angel investors.

Wakweli is a community-driven protocol that encourages users to review certificate requests using a unique consensus method known as Proof-of-Democracy (PoD), with all certified assets having a green tick.

Wakweli’s platform issues certificates of authenticity for NFTs and other tokenized assets to combat fraud in the growing web3 ecosystem.

Polygon, on the other hand, has been one of the most active blockchain projects in recent months. Polygon Lab recently announced launch of Polygon zkEVM on the mainnet as it seeks to bring more scaling development to the Ethereum ecosystem.

Polygon also partnered with Immutable X earlier this month in an effort to accelerate web3 game development.
