GEM Global Yield LLC SCS (GGY), a fifth-generation blockchain network, stated on Tuesday that it has obtained a $100 million capital commitment as it prepares to register for an IPO.
GEM will fortify its strategic advantage in the developing markets for a stable level 1 blockchain with a strongly diversified portfolio of the use cases and a growing cache of MoUs with governmental and private partners by making an investment in 5ire, formed by Pratik Gauri and Prateek Dwivedi, together with crypto financier Vilma Mattila.
The new funds will be used to expand the ecosystem, which will include negotiating with government stakeholders in India and emerging foreign markets, investing in technology and resources, employing, and increasing 5ireChain usage.

As a first step, 5ire has already been working intensively on the United Governments’ Sustainable Development Goals, cooperating with nations from three continents.
