Canopy has announced the completion of a $1.2 million funding round, marking a significant milestone for its decentralized finance (DeFi) platform. The investment, led by Mechanism Capital and CitizenX, was also backed by Primitive, GSR, and Side Door Ventures. This funding will be used to further Canopy's mission of enhancing yield strategies within the Movement ecosystem, providing both institutional and retail users with efficient and scalable solutions.


The funds raised will be directed toward integrating Canopy into Movement's DeFi framework, streamlining liquidity flow, and offering a unified platform for discovering, optimizing, and managing yield opportunities. Through strategic partnerships with other protocols, Canopy aims to optimize yield generation while maintaining security and scalability, positioning itself as a key infrastructure provider within the ecosystem.
