## About

Based in the Bahamas, West Indies, and founded in 2018 by co-founders Jon Schwartz, Fabian Harmik Stelzer, and Peter Andersen, GLIF Ltd. is a provider of a decentralised protocol on the Filecoin blockchain for deploying, managing, and upgrading custom Filecoin staking pools. In February 2024, GLIF Ltd. raised USD 4.5 million in seed funding led by investor Multicoin Capital, with participation from other investors Zed Prime Capital, Fintech Collective, Big Brain Holdings, Protocol Labs, and several angel investors.

The company's flagship products, the GLIF Wallet and GLIF Pools, are web wallets designed for the Filecoin Network, offering users a secure and intuitive platform for managing their assets. Additionally, the GLIF Multisignature wallet provides node services to both public and private Filecoin nodes to power numerous applications across the network. The platform enables users to leverage their collateral value to borrow Filecoin, thereby facilitating liquidity provision and storage operations.

The company plans to use the February 2024 funding to expand its tools to earn a yield on FIL.
