Sila raises $13 million in Series A round
The API platform provider Sila announced that it raised $13 million in a Series A funding round led by Revolution Ventures. Its total funding is now at $20 million.
“Sila’s mission has always been to make money programmable. Access to the U.S. banking system, especially for innovators and entrepreneurs, is extremely complex and prohibitive. The Sila Money API platform provides easy, scalable, and compliant money storage and money transfer,” said Shamir Karkal, co-founder and CEO of Sila.
Sila stated it will continue to bring entirely new financial technology innovations to market to bridge the gap between outdated banking systems and the emerging financial system being built on blockchain technology.
Cloudflare launches Project Pangea to provide underserved communities with internet
With Cloudflare’s new project, eligible local communities can use the company’s performance and security services–for free–to more reliably and securely connect to the global Internet without paying the high costs of bandwidth.
“Safe, reliable, and sustainable Internet access is a basic human right,” said Matthew Prince, the co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare. “Unfortunately many communities are building their own infrastructure only to be blocked by high bandwidth costs. We want to help where we can–if they’ve already built the connecting roads, we want to offer our network as the safe, accessible highway to the global Internet.”
Network organizers will be able to find a free on-ramp to the internet, operate secure and performant networks for everyone and utilize Cloudflare’s global network that spans over 100 countries and connects with over 9,500 networks globally.
Apache weekly update
