TechFlow news — According to Mustafa Al-Bassam, co-founder of Celestia, in a post on X, Celestia was repeatedly rejected by investors in 2019. The team spent months convincing its first investor, George Lambeth, who at the time was still a university student.
Celestia (TIA) raised $1.5 million in its seed round, selling 159,000,000 tokens at a price of just $0.0094 per token.
George Lambeth is now a co-founder of Divergence Ventures and a member of the dao5 team. He previously participated in seed rounds for both Arbitrum and Avalanche.
