Blum

Blum, a decentralized exchange (DEX) integrated with Telegram, has raised $5 million across pre-seed and seed funding rounds. The investment, led by gumi Cryptos Capital, also saw participation from OKX Ventures, Spartan, No Limit Holdings, and YZi Labs. The capital will be allocated toward expanding the platform’s AI-powered trading tools and integrating multichain support.


Since launching in July 2024, Blum has recorded 2.2 million unique wallets and established a Telegram community exceeding 32 million members. The platform has shifted from a tap-to-earn model to a trade-to-earn structure, increasing engagement among traders. Additionally, Blum operates Blum Memepad, a service for meme coin creation, which has facilitated $200 million in trading volume and onboarded 380 tokens across decentralized exchanges.
