Glider and vlayer Team Up to Let Users Seamlessly Glide into Crypto Investing

Glider and vlayer announce a strategic partnership aimed at setting the new standard for user onboarding in crypto investing. By leveraging vlayer’s zero knowledge proof (ZKP) and multi-party computation (MPC) technologies, Glider users will benefit from a streamlined verification process that securely validates social profiles (such as X) and historical trading activity from centralized exchanges, all while ensuring privacy and providing the seamless user experience.

Glider, fresh from a successful $4 million strategic fundraising round led by a16z CSX, Coinbase Ventures, Uniswap Labs, among others, is dedicated to making crypto portfolio management intuitive, seamless, and strategic.

"At Glider, our mission is simplifying crypto investing by removing technical hurdles. By integrating vlayer’s verifiable data infrastructure, we can offer users a frictionless onboarding experience, combining verified data with complete user privacy. This collaboration is a significant step towards our vision of accessible and effortless crypto portfolio management." Brian Huang, CEO and Co-founder of Glider.

vlayer recently raised $10 million in a pre-seed round backed by leading global investors including a16zcrypto CSX, Credo Ventures, and Strobe VC. The company specializes in creating verifiable data infrastructure for decentralized applications, harnessing powerful cryptographic tools to unlock previously unattainable capabilities in smart contracts, but also within centralized apps.

"Our partnership with Glider highlights precisely the value vlayer brings to the decentralized finance ecosystem. Our ZKP-powered solutions enable robust verification without sacrificing privacy or usability. We're proud to support Glider’s innovative platform, enhancing the onboarding process for crypto investors everywhere." Hubert Rachwalski von Rejchwald, CEO and Co-founder of vlayer. Together, Glider and vlayer are pioneering a new standard in crypto investing experiences: secure, private, and intuitive.
