An Indian development firm, 5ire, aims to incorporate blockchain technology into the sustainability space.
The firm sets to lay down a proprietary layer-1 protocol incentivizing the use of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The sustainability-based blockchain project secured a $100 million investment fund to propel its ambitions.
The $100 Million Sustainability Fund
Indian-based entrepreneurs Pratik Gauri and Pratcek Dwivedi spearheaded the project. The blockchain-based project known as 5ire acts as a game changer. The project aims to incentivize the implementation of the SDGs in its system.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) form part of the UN’s strategic objectives. The project attracted a total of $121 million in investment. The project secured a seed round investment of $21 million from notable tech investors.
The notable tech investors include Marshland Capital, Launchpool Labs, Alphabit and Moonrock Capital. Another seed round secured $100 million worth of funding. The United Kingdom-based group SRAM & MRAM set up the fundraising.
The firm intends to expand its operations into Asia, Europe and North America. The expansion comes after a solid foundation in its main operation center in India. 5ire seeks to promote practices that are aligned with the United Nations SDGs.
How 5ire Works
The 5irechain is a blockchain-based network. 5irechain supports a first-layer, sustainability-driven and fifth-generation blockchain. The blockchain operates under a sustainable proof of stake consensus protocol.
The protocol ranks node validators based on a number of SDG practices they follow. The nodes are assigned weights based on metrics. The metrics include reliability, randomized voting, stakes, previous nomination and sustainability score.
5irechain seeks to implement its set use cases and develop business services. These business services operate under a 5irechain network and offer solutions to users. 5ire claims to grow rapidly after hiring more than 100 staff workers.
The firm sets to rapidly scale up its offering in the tech development and venture capital space. 5ire aims to weather the current downward trajectory in crypto markets. The business model based on a merger between blockchain and sustainability will play a critical role in that goal.
Pillars of Investment
5ire aims high as it plans to build use cases with several key stakeholders. The key stakeholders involved include governments, Fortune 500 companies and family offices.
5ire CEO and Founder, Pratik Gauri, noted the project acts as a Unicorn from India. Gauri Claims that his team worked round-the-clock to develop 5ire. He believes that 5ire will benefit the human race.
The CEO also insisted that 5ire sets the tone for the 5th Industrial Revolution. The firm also aims to empower DAOs and other working groups. 5ire will achieve this goal by accelerating goal accomplishment and guaranteeing openness and inclusivity.
With the launch of the project, 5ire will pave the way for the next tech bubble. The move will be based on three key pillars of investment. The pillars consist of technology, sustainability and innovation.
