Discover how DuckChain’s unique blockchain approach and strategic investments might
just reshape industries from retail to fintech. A quirky innovation or serious market potential, or another Dogecoin(esque), meme-tastic creation?
Blockchain platforms are a dime a dozen, but DuckChain just got a
serious vote of confidence with recent investments and strategic partnerships. DuckChain
has announced collaborations with several big-name backers, injecting fresh
capital into its ambitious plans. These partnerships aren’t just about money—they
reflect market faith in DuckChain’s potential to outpace competitors in
scalability, efficiency, and usability.
The $5 million financing round saw participation from prominent
investors such as dao5, Offchain Labs, Kenetic Capital, DWF Ventures, Oak Grove
Ventures, Skyland Ventures, GeekCartel, Gate.io, and Presto.
But what makes DuckChain (site) so
special? Let’s waddle through the details.
What is DuckChain? More Than Just a Funny Name
First off, no, DuckChain isn’t a blockchain dedicated to poultry. But
it does aim to be the sleekest and most versatile platform in the blockchain
ecosystem. DuckChain is a decentralized blockchain network designed to offer an
intuitive, developer-friendly space for creating decentralized applications
(dApps). Think of it as the “Swiss Army knife” of blockchains—it’s
scalable, secure, and loaded with user-centric tools.
Its standout feature? Efficiency. DuckChain uses a unique consensus
algorithm that drastically reduces transaction processing times while keeping
fees almost laughably low. This makes it perfect for businesses looking to
implement blockchain solutions without hemorrhaging cash on fees or waiting
eons for transaction confirmations.
DuckChain’s Real-World Potential from Fintech to Retail
Beyond the tech specs, DuckChain has its sights set on solving
real-world challenges. Whether it’s streamlining supply chain logistics,
enabling secure financial transactions, or supporting sustainable development
projects, the platform is a jack-of-all-trades. Its applications in trade and
commerce are particularly noteworthy, with DuckChain offering tailored
solutions to industries like retail, manufacturing, and fintech.
Moreover, the platform boasts advanced encryption protocols, making it
a fortress against cyber threats. For businesses concerned about data integrity
and security, DuckChain promises peace of mind wrapped in cutting-edge
technology.
Investments That Quack the Code
The fresh influx of capital from its recent partnerships will allow
DuckChain to scale its operations, improve its infrastructure, and expand its
market reach. As more industries recognize blockchain’s potential, DuckChain is
uniquely positioned to capitalize on this momentum. With backing from both tech
giants and venture capitalists, DuckChain is rapidly evolving from a promising
newcomer to a market leader.
DuckChain might have a quirky name, but it’s no joke. With its efficient,
user-friendly blockchain solutions and a new wave of investments, this platform
is a force to be reckoned with. Whether you’re a developer, an investor, or
just someone keeping an eye on blockchain’s evolving landscape, DuckChain is
one name you’ll want to remember.
A Tale of Ducks and Dogs: Dogecoin and DuckChain
DuckChain’s whimsical branding isn’t the first time blockchain has
leaned into the bizarre. Enter Dogecoin, the cryptocurrency that started as a
meme and ended up being a cultural phenomenon. What began as a joke featuring
the iconic Shiba Inu from the “Doge” meme has evolved into a blockchain
powerhouse. Dogecoin, much like DuckChain, has turned its quirky roots into a
unique selling point, proving that even the most unconventional names can make
waves in the tech world.
Dogecoin. Meme away.
This trend of eccentric branding highlights the blockchain industry's
penchant for standing out. From Dogecoin to DuckChain, these names often defy
the sterile naming conventions of traditional finance. Instead, they embrace
humor and relatability, turning blockchain into a conversation starter. It’s a
refreshing reminder that beneath the serious tech and market potential, there’s
room for a little fun in the world of innovation.

In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.
