The Miami-based startup works to help developers build blockchain apps.
“This round is a major milestone that helps us deliver on our vision of growth in Web 3 through better infrastructure, improved tooling and greater accessibility across all blockchains,” QuickNode Vice President Amol Shah told CoinDesk in an email.
The company said it will use the new funds to expand its product offerings and support new chains, which it has done at a pace of “about one per month” since its $5.3 million seed round in May.
“The speed at which the team integrates new blockchains – especially non-EVM [Ethereum Virtual Machine] chains like Solana and Terra – is incredible, and serves as testament to their familiarity with the needs of blockchain developers today,” Arrington XRP Capital Partner Ninor Mansor told CoinDesk.

Telegram Ring Ran Pump-and-Dump Network That Netted $800K in a Month: Solidus Labs
A Solidus Labs investigation details how an invite-only Telegram group used bots, fake narratives and rapid token deployments across Solana and BNB Chain to manipulate markets.
What to know:
- PumpCell orchestrated synchronized token launches, sniper-bot buys and meme-driven hype campaigns to inflate micro-cap tokens to seven-figure valuations within minutes, according to a new forensic investigation by Solidus Labs.
- The group generated an estimated $800,000 in October 2025, moving funds through centralized exchanges and an OTC cash broker to allegedly evade compliance controls.
- Solidus says crypto’s AMM-driven markets, bot execution and cross-chain pseudonymity make such schemes difficult for legacy monitoring tools to detect — and warns PumpCell reflects a broader, evolving pattern of digital-asset abuse.
