Company mission

To provide a secure smart contracts framework to the entire blockchain ecosystem.

8% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

While JavaScript is popular among mainstream developers, its use in decentralized applications (dApps) is somewhat limited. Agoric is hoping to bridge the divide, by developing a secure, blockchain-agnostic programming language based on JavaScript. The company is providing a safe and stable environment for developers to build DeFi markets, NFTs, and dApps.

With over 14M developers in the JavaScript community, Agoric is bringing DeFi to an overlooked community and helping the community reach its full potential. Further setting itself apart from competitors, Agoric is dedicated to saving developers valuable time by providing pre-built smart contract components and dApps that allow DeFi to be built and deployed at an accelerated rate.

After raising capital from multiple investors and public token sales, Agoric plans to carry on building its platform and further grow its team of talent. The company expects to be one of the most utilized blockchain platforms in the coming years, all thanks to its combination of unique features and accessibility for developers.
