Today, I'm excited to announce our $25M Series B round for Drift Labs, with total funding at $52.5M to date I founded Drift with David L. in 2021 with the mission to be the best decentralized trading platform in crypto. Since then, Drift has now processed >$50 billion in trading volume, with $500m deposits across 200,000 users Thank you Fortune for the coverage especially wrt highlighting that Drift is female-led - something I'm extremely proud about!

Drift's biggest ship this cycle: The most capital-efficient prediction markets

Calling all buildooors 📢 Enter the Colosseum arena. Register now: https://lnkd.in/d4hPxsGv

BET by Drift Labs is built to be the first capital-efficient prediction market on Solana and the ecosystem's answer to Polymarket. Capital efficiency is a differentiator for two reasons. 1. You can trade with any collateral that is available on Drift. Unlike other platforms where you can only interact with USDC, Bet allows you to trade with any asset. SOL, JTO, JUP, CLOUD, KMNO, PYTH, W can ALL be used as collateral. 2. You can earn while you BET. All deposits will be able to collect yield as part of Drift's cross-margin system. For instance, PYUSD is yielding approximately ~20% at the time of writing this post. Imagine placing your Bet for the 2024 election and able to earn a yield on it while you are locked in that position. You can do more with your collateral. Ultimately, BET is going to be more than just election markets. It is going to represent capital markets for truth

Drift reached $1B in daily trading volume this week. As the markets experienced a crash early this week, Drift remained one of the strongest performers across all ecosystems, achieving record levels of activity.
