Odaily Reports, qinbafrank posted on the X platform stating that KorProtocol announced the completion of a $7.5 million Series A funding round, co-led by 1kx and Blockchain Capital, at a post-money valuation of $100 million. Other participants include Republic, Animoca, Solana, Avalanche, and others. Through its three core engines — Verify, Route, and Settle — KOR transforms creative assets into on-chain assets that are verifiable, matchable, and automatically settled. The Verify engine allows creators to register their works on-chain, recording provenance, ownership, and licensing terms. The Route engine uses data and AI to match creators, assets, labels, brands, platforms, and agencies. The Settle engine enables instant automatic revenue sharing via smart contracts and USDC on the Base chain, supporting complex split rules and recurring income. KOR currently has over 1 million registered users, more than $2 million in revenue, over 285,000 NFTs, and over 1,000 IP partners, and has collaborated with deadmau5 and "Black Mirror." Following the funding, KOR will continue to expand its IP supply, deepen partnerships, and advance network expansion.
