We’re excited to share that we’ve built a position in peaq, the infrastructure layer for machines, robots and connected devices. This investment reflects two of Greenfield’s core theses: first, that the Machine Economy – where autonomous robots, machines and devices act as economic agents – will become one of the defining drivers of blockchain adoption; and second, that the future of crypto infrastructure lies in purpose-built, application-specific blockchains rather than generalized, one-size-fits-all networks. Alongside the investment, Greenfield operates a validator through Greenfield Labs, further aligning our long-term commitment to the network’s growth.

We’re excited to announce that Greenfield is participating in nuConstruct’s $6M seed funding round. nuConstruct is developing TOOL, an out-of-protocol solution to scale Ethereum L1 block times from currently 12 seconds to 1 second subslots via early confirmations, which guarantee both inclusion and execution results of transactions.

We are excited to lead Drosera’s $3.25M seed round. This funding will be instrumental in further developing and deploying Drosera's innovative decentralized incident detection and response solution to ensure the safety of onchain value.

On 23 February, Germany will elect a new parliament. The election comes in a year when Germany and Europe need to set their decisive course as a leading hub for the crypto industry and blockchain as a key technology. Together with Areta, we have compiled a position paper on the levers for innovation-friendly conditions and regulatory clarity for entrepreneurs, users and investors.
