The round brought together a diverse group of backers, including executives, founders, and traders from across the crypto ecosystem. Among the investors were Raj Gokal (Solana), Bryan Pellegrino (LayerZero Labs), Marc Boiron (Polygon Labs), and executives from Sei, Berachain, and Wintermute.

The company recently launched its Closed Alpha on TestFlight and is gradually onboarding users while refining its platform ahead of a broader rollout. Over 95,000 users have joined the waitlist. Fomo’s team includes professionals with experience at firms such as dYdX, Uniswap, OpenSea, Square, and Two Sigma, many of whom have worked together previously at dYdX.
