Boson Protocol raises £7.2m in Series A funding to expand its decentralised commerce platform.
The oversubscribed round was backed by Outlier Ventures and Animoca Brands to scale product development and ecosystem growth.
Boson Protocol is building decentralised infrastructure to connect smart contracts with real world commerce. The project uses NFTs and game theory to enable trustless exchange between digital assets and physical goods.
Boson Protocol has secured £7.2m in a Series A financing round to advance its decentralised commerce network. The oversubscribed raise drew participation from a range of venture capital firms, including Outlier Ventures and Animoca Brands. The capital will be deployed to expand technical and product teams, develop prototype pilots for launch partners, and accelerate ecosystem growth through the dCommerce DAO.
The project aims to establish an open commerce bridge between virtual environments and physical markets, enabling participants to transact without relying on intermediaries that extract value and retain customer data.
From the founder
"This funding round will fuel the next chapter of the Boson Protocol story — a story I am proud to be a part of as we work to reshape the future of commerce. Our vision is to create a more decentralised, open, and fairer future. This can only be achieved by facilitating the development of a stack of specialist applications to disrupt, demonopolise, and democratise commerce. This decentralised approach to e-Commerce will allow parties to engage in online commercial activity in a trustless, safe, and equitable environment, while allowing for the minimisation of value capture by centralised entities."

Investor perspective
"Boson Protocol is to dCommerce what stablecoins were to the DeFi stack — the catalyst for an ecosystem of highly specialised, yet complementary and composable protocols. Decentralized commerce is set to be the next big thing, and the potential for a project that can adequately bridge the gap between blockchain technology and real world asset transfer is enormous — Boson is that project."
