Espresso Systems has quietly raised $60M but the real story is
๐—ช๐—ต๐—ผ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—บ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ต๐˜† ?

Letโ€™s break down the signal behind the capital.
@EspressoSys 

1/ In 2022, ๐—˜๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ผ raised a $32M seed led by :
๐Ÿ”น Sequoia
๐Ÿ”น Electric Capital
๐Ÿ”น Greylock

 ๐˜—๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜บ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ :
Coinbase Ventures, Polychain, Blockchain Capital, Paxos, Scalar, Alameda, ZKValidator, and more.

A real who's who of early crypto conviction.

2/ Fast forward to 2024:
Espresso closes a $28M Series B.
Led by a16z Crypto. Backed by ecosystem itself:

๐Ÿ”ธ Polygon
๐Ÿ”ธ StarkWare
๐Ÿ”ธ Taiko
๐Ÿ”ธ Offchain Labs (Arbitrum)
๐Ÿ”ธ O(1) Labs
๐Ÿ”ธ Contributors from 30+ major rollups.

Thatโ€™s not just money. Thatโ€™s alignment.

3/ These arenโ€™t passive VCs, these are the builders of the modular stack betting on Espresso to become its coordination layer.

- They need shared sequencing.
- They need fair ordering.
- They need secure, fast confirmation across rollups.

๐—˜๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ผ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜€๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฟ.

4/ Espressoโ€™s value isnโ€™t theoretical.
Itโ€™s already shipping:

โœ… HotShot BFT consensus
โœ… CAPE privacy
โœ… Live integrations (RariChain, LogX, etc.)
โœ… Full staking + permissionless validation coming soon

Infra thatโ€™s trusted, tested, and deeply funded.

5/ TL;DR :
While others pitch modular visions, Espresso quietly raised $60M from the modular future itself.
Thatโ€™s a bet on coordination. On composability. On trustless speed.

And thatโ€™s why the whole space is watching.
