DWF Labs, the global multi-stage Web3 investment firm, has announced a partnership with Algorand Foundation to support the health and growth of the ecosystem built on the Algorand blockchain.

The first component of the partnership involves a $50 million ALGO token purchase agreement to, in part, provide liquidity into the Algorand ecosystem.

An additional MOU has been signed with the aim of allocating funds to support projects that are building on the Algorand blockchain in the spaces of DeFi, Art and Music, Gaming, Oracles and Bridges, and Infrastructure.

Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of DWF Labs, shared his enthusiasm for this partnership and its potential for revolutionising blockchain innovation, as well as DWF Labs’ commitment to actively participate in the building of the Algorand ecosystem.

“We selected Algorand because of its unparalleled level of technology and security among permissionless DLTs, as well as its leadership in environmental sustainability and social impact. Algorand's blockchain infrastructure provides the speed and instant finality required for creators, financial institutions and governments to smoothly transition to the new digital economy at scale, in an environmentally responsible manner. This partnership with the Algorand Foundation is another important step in the maturation and growth of innovation in this space,” said Grachev.
