Earlier this year, ex-TRON Head of Engineering Eric Chen, and ex-Polygon Business Director Marouen Zelleg have set on a mission to create the most efficient and credibly neutral platform where web3 builders discover, deploy and fairly pay for optimized modular services that evolve with the needs of their projects.

Today, we’re thrilled to announce that Crestal has successfully closed a pre-seed funding round, raising $2 million. This milestone is not just a testament to the potential of our vision but also a strong endorsement from some of the most respected names in the industry.
