  • The funding round is being led by Coatue Management, which is led by billionaire investor Philippe Laffont, according to the report. Laffont has previously invested in Airtable, Instacart, Spotify, Bitmain and other well-known companies.
  • The blockchain game developer has been on a roll, something the timing of the funding raise clearly reflects, The Block noted. Dapper Labs' NBA Top Shop project is now the most popular nonfungible token (NFT) series by volume after being launched in October 2020.
  • The firm has generated almost $100 million in NFT sales, the report said.
  • Prior to the rise of NBA Top Shot, Dapper was best known as the creator of CryptoKitties.

  • Bitcoin’s price recovered above $70,000 after a drop, driven by cooler-than-expected U.S. inflation data and increased risk appetite.
  • Despite the price recovery, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains in “extreme fear,” indicating underlying market anxiety.
  • $8.7 billion in bitcoin losses were realized in the last week, potentially signaling a capitulation event and a shift of supply to stronger hands.
