Our take
There is a lot for businesses to consider nowadays, as the evolution of the internet and technology is often hard to keep up with. Founded in 2023, Bastion is very new to the scene and sets out to enable companies to seamlessly integrate web3 infrastructure into enterprise technologies. The white-label platform uses a cost effective product suite of tools (from custodial wallets to data analytics) for businesses to determine its on and off-chain products and further develop digital assets to better their consumers experience.
Founded by two a16z Crypto C-suiters the platform combines the simplicity of web2 with the capabilities of web3. The company acquired an impressive seed round of funding and the premise looks promising. It will be really exciting to see how Bastion takes on competitors in the market and set themselves apart.
