Galaxy Ventures Backs RISE Chain, $8 Million Raised To Launch Fastest Zone for Real-Time Apps on Ethereum

by Chainwire
June 9, 2025
in Press Releases

June 9, 2025 – Sydney, Australia


With the support of Galaxy Ventures and previous investment from notable industry leaders like Vitalik Buterin, RISE sets out to solve the blockchain adoption challenge with its exponentially faster blockchain technology, offering real-time performance of as low as five milliseconds latency and a 100,000 TPS (transactions per second) target, while maintaining a decentralization-first roadmap.

RISE, a real-time blockchain scaling Ethereum with record throughput and ultra-low latency, announced a $4 million investment from Galaxy Ventures, bringing total funds raised to date to $8 million.

This latest funding round will enable RISE to continue to push the boundaries of blockchain performance and develop the next generation of blockchain applications.

Offering instant transaction speeds is a key pillar of bringing more assets, enterprises and users onchain – but building a blockchain that provides this has been difficult to date.

RISE, a new blockchain built on top of Ethereum, solves this with its breakthrough transaction architecture, powered by Shreds, which enable record-breaking latency as low as five milliseconds.

This is especially significant for advanced DeFi use cases such as orderbook strategies, options, high-frequency trading and market making.

RISE launched its public testnet earlier this month, which has already undergone significant battle testing, reaching over two billion transactions, including over 50,000 transactions processed in a single one-second block.

This enables developers to experiment and build onchain apps that operate with a new standard of performance, introduced as ‘infinite speed’ – real-time performance, decentralized.

By rethinking blockchain design from first principles, RISE addresses a fundamental tradeoff where low latency and high throughput previously required compromising decentralization.

Competing blockchains often rely on centralized approaches, introducing censorship risk and single points of failure.

RISE was built from day one to deliver unstoppable performance without sacrificing decentralization, enabling real-time transactions on widely accessible, standard hardware.

RISE will also implement performance-compatible based sequencing to leverage Ethereum’s vast network of validators and unlock synchronous composability between Ethereum and RISE.

Key differentiators of RISE
  • Shreds – Sub-blocktime transaction confirmations enabling as low as five milliseconds round-trip latency
  • Scalable throughput – Currently benchmarked at over 50,000 TPS, with plans to exceed 100,000 TPS
  • Based sequencing (coming soon) – Unlocking a true extension of Ethereum and solving liquidity fragmentation for users
  • Secured shreds (coming soon) – Pre-confirmations economically secured by Ethereum validators, significantly improving the security profile

Sam Battenally, co-founder and CEO of RISE, said,

“Performance is only meaningful if it lasts. RISE was built to stay fast – forever.

“This investment from Galaxy Ventures underscores the need for infrastructure that doesn’t just scale technically but scales trustlessly.

“We’re excited to accelerate toward mainnet and bring the next generation of crypto apps into reality.”

RISE will use the funding to support product and app development in the lead-up to mainnet launch. Builders can explore the testnet now here.

Neil Bhuta, investor at Galaxy Ventures, said,

“RISE is the first project we’ve seen that addresses the scalability trilemma without material security trade-offs.

“It brings a level of speed, scalability and decentralization that is essential to supporting a new generation of high-performance applications.

“We’re proud to back a talented team that is pushing the boundaries of blockchain technology.”

About RISE

RISE is a next-generation Ethereum layer-two blockchain redefining performance with ‘infinite speed’ – delivering instant transaction confirmation at unprecedented scale, while upholding Ethereum’s core principle of decentralization.

Its architecture enables as low as five milliseconds latency and will support over 100,000 TPS, unlocking a radically improved experience for both developers and users.

Seed investors include Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and AAVE founder Stani Kulechov.
