HTX Ventures Invests in Avail to Support Key Infrastructure Development
SINGAPORE, June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In a move that underscores its commitment to broadening the reach and usability of Web3 technologies, HTX Ventures, the global investment arm of the cryptocurrency exchange HTX, has announced a strategic investment in Avail, a modular blockchain solution designed to unify Web3 and optimize data availability (DA) for scalable and customizable applications.
Avail DA provides decentralized infrastructure for developers to quickly build and scale modern blockchain applications. By inheriting security from the base layer through rollups and extending restaking to include multiple assets, such as BTC and ETH, it aims to provide ample security for the thousands of rollups built on top.
Edward, Managing Partner at HTX Ventures, shared his investment insights: “The Avail team possesses exceptional technical capabilities, and Avail DA is one of the fastest and most cost-effective data availability solutions in the market right now. By combining their data availability layer with cross-chain interoperability and the robust security provided by Avail Nexus & Avail Fusion, Avail is building the unification layer for Web3. HTX Ventures is excited to support Avail on this journey and participated in the recently announced $43M Series A fundraise alongside Founders Fund & Dragonfly.”
“This Series A funding marks a pivotal moment for Avail as we strive to build the permissionless unification layer for Web3,” said Anurag Arjun, Co-founder of Avail. “With this new capital, we are poised to accelerate our development, expand our global presence, and continue to address the most critical challenges facing Web3 today, such as blockchain fragmentation, insufficient data availability, and limited scaling. Additionally, it will help foster partnerships and collaborations with other players across the entire Web3 ecosystem, which is mission-critical for Avail’s success.”
Recently, Avail has crossed a major milestone in its incentivized testnet, “Clash of Nodes,” with nearly 110,000 total accounts created, and 116 million transactions processed — ahead of its upcoming mainnet due to be launched in the next few weeks. HTX Ventures is excited to support prominent projects like Avail that are building solid infrastructure to enable a user-friendly decentralized future.
About Avail:
Avail is led by Polygon’s former co-founder Anurag Arjun and is building a unification layer to solve rollup fragmentation at scale. Avail addresses this from first principles solving blockchain scalability with Avail DA, a foundational DA layer which implements the same technology planned for Ethereum’s danksharding roadmap, including KZG Commitments and Data Availability Sampling (DAS). Avail Nexus addresses growing fragmentation concerns with permissionless interoperability, leveraging proof aggregation on Avail’s scalable DA layer. Avail’s security is then reinforced with multi-asset staking through Avail Fusion. Start your unification journey today at availproject.org

DUBAI, UAE, June 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, one of the world’s top three crypto exchanges by volume, is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking Futures Combo, a cutting-edge solution designed to revolutionize portfolio management. This product, the first of its kind, offers traders new tools to maintain a futures portfolio with fixed proportions, regardless of market fluctuations.
Futures Combo provides a comprehensive suite of features, including auto rebalancing, which ensures that each asset in the portfolio maintains its initial weight, effectively mitigating risks associated with market volatility. With Futures Combo, traders can rest assured that their portfolio is optimized, even in volatile conditions.
Auto-rebalancing can be triggered based on user preferences, set intervals or deviations from predefined thresholds. This flexibility empowers traders to customize their trading strategies according to their risk appetite and market outlook. Furthermore, the product beats existing rebalancing solutions, such as the spot rebalancing bot, which lacks the capability for short selling and leverage adjustments.
Futures Combo is applicable across a range of trading scenarios:
- Index Trading: Maintain a fixed-proportion asset portfolio to replicate market index performance.
- Relative Value: Capitalize on market disparities by longing one market sector and shorting another, regardless of market direction.
- Alpha Strategy: Mitigate market risk by longing an asset portfolio while shorting the benchmark asset, focusing on generating excess returns.
- Equal Weighting: Allocate your investment evenly to each asset and keep rebalancing. Enhance returns by giving more exposure to undervalued assets.
“Bybit’s Futures Combo gives traders an excellent new tool to manage their portfolios,” said Hao Yang, head of financial products at Bybit. “As the first platform to innovate this solution, Bybit continues to lead the way in the crypto industry, democratizing access to products that previously were only available to a select few.”

Sarah Brennan, an accomplished figure in corporate and securities law, serves as General Counsel at Delphi Ventures, focusing on investments in the Web3 space. With over 14 years of experience in securities law and a deep involvement in digital assets since 2017, Brennan also co-leads LeXpunK, a collective dedicated to establishing legal frameworks for decentralized digital communities.
In a candid interview with a prominent cryptocurrency news outlet, Brennan discussed various critical topics. She addressed the emergence of crypto super PACs, funded significantly by major firms like Ripple and Circle, to counter strict SEC regulations. Brennan viewed the SAB 121 bill, backed by the US administration, as potentially isolating the crypto community from broader financial integration.
While acknowledging the influence of centralized entities in advocating for crypto interests, Brennan cautioned against replicating traditional financial hierarchies within the crypto sphere, which contradicts its revolutionary ethos. She expressed concerns about monopolistic scenarios that could dominate the crypto landscape, exerting excessive control over essential industry components and traditional financial operations.
Regarding regulatory challenges, Brennan advocated for tailored regulations to manage systemic risks posed by large centralized crypto institutions. She criticized the current regulatory opacity and inconsistency, which she believes have fostered suboptimal business practices. Through LeXpunK, Brennan endeavors to pioneer experimental legal structures that could redefine regulatory compliance for token issuances, though reception from policymakers has been lukewarm.
Looking ahead, Brennan emphasizes the need for proactive regulatory approaches using antitrust measures to prevent crypto monopolies, promote decentralization, and target bad actors. However, she highlighted the persistent communication gap between crypto-literate legal advocates and hesitant regulators as a significant obstacle.
Brennan continues to drive forward her mission through new advocacy platforms aimed at shaping the future of cryptographic regulation, navigating complexities to ensure balanced and effective regulatory frameworks in the evolving crypto landscape.
