Bitcoin transactions can be "colored" to represent, for example, the transfer of smart property. A large array of applications are envisioned, including multisig functionality, micropayments and peer-to-peer exchange.
Colu is building API technology allowing developers to access Colored Coins functionality and to build distributed applications more easily. Developers can add blockchain-based approvals to transactions involving more than just digital currencies.
The funding will go toward to marketing the technology for real-world applications and growing the Colu team.
The round marks the latest investment in blockchain-based API technology. Two weeks ago, BlockCypher secured a $3.5 million investment for building out its “web services for blockchain."
