🦖 Big moves in Web3 consumer infra: @TREX_chain, the entertainment-focused blockchain built by @EVGhq, has raised $17M in pre-seed funding to fix Web3’s most overlooked layer — attention and distribution.

While most chains compete on TPS and modularity, T-Rex is laser-focused on onboarding the next billion users through culture, not complexity. Its Proof-of-Engagement model rewards users for doing what they already love — watching content on platforms like X, YouTube, and TikTok. No wallet. No gas. No crypto knowledge required. Just install the Chrome extension and start earning.

Backers include some of the most respected names in Web3 VC:
@PortalVentures, @NorthIslandVC, @hiFramework, @ArbitrumPlay, plus @ark_stream, @MindfulnessCap, @hypersphere_, @snzholding, @ArcheFund, and @yq_acc.

T-Rex is built on @arbitrum Orbit and serves as a consumer-grade chain purpose-built for content creators, influencers, and developers. Think of it as the publishing engine for Web3: a chain where the blockchain disappears, and what remains is a fun, rewarding user experience.

The protocol is already live in testnet, with 10+ activations across Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. By EOY, they’re targeting 100+ creators, media partnerships, and more IP collabs to grow the ecosystem further.

“We’re not building infrastructure. We’re building gravity. They didn’t invest in a chain. They invested in a culture.”

If you believe the next wave of Web3 adoption comes from consumer-first, culture-led design — keep your eye on T-Rex. The egg is hatching... 🥚
