Avalanche-backed Fusion launches with $100M to boost blockchain adoption

Avalanche, Helix and Faculty Group have launched Fusion, a new blockchain ecosystem aimed at driving real-world adoption through modular infrastructure tailored to specific industries. Built on Avalanche, Fusion features a two-layer architecture that includes composers, customizable layer-1 networks and modules, which offer plug-and-play services like compute, identity and data oracles. The team said this approach would be the answer for mainstream adoption, as they attempt to deliver “outcome-driven, domain-specific” blockchain-based economies. “In order to achieve widespread adoption, our industry needs to shift from selling blockspace to delivering business value,” a Fusion spokesperson told Cointelegraph. They added that Fusion integrates economic alignment, network design and composability to achieve real-world outcomes. Fusion expects traction in composer and module development The Fusion team expects composers and modules — the two building blocks for the protocol — to gain traction in the next two to three years. The spokesperson told Cointelegraph that they are starting with five composers and nearly 100 modules in the first year. The team expects this to more than double over the next two to three years. “Because of how the ecosystem is designed, in two to three years we expect that the Fusion ecosystem will consist of tens of composers and hundreds of modules,” the spokesperson said. Fusion’s architecture is designed to let enterprises and Web3 builders combine technology, financial tools, and identity features in ways that were previously unavailable, the spokesperson added. “Fusion is an initiative led and funded by the Avalanche community that is only technologically possible on Avalanche,” the spokesperson said, claiming that the initiative strengthens Avalanche’s position as a blockchain that delivers real-world business value.

According to Fusion’s announcement, the funds will come from Avalanche’s Multiverse, an incentive program to accelerate the adoption of Avalanche subnets, and Retro9000, a grant program that rewards developers who build infrastructure and tools. Fusion also uses funds from InfraBUIDL and InfraBUIDL AI, programs designed to fund Avalanche-based projects. “The funds will be distributed to support the medium-term growth of the Fusion ecosystem, including composers, modules and end-users,” the spokesperson told Cointelegraph.

Leading Web3 decentralized data firm Space and Time Labs expands its offerings to Microsoft Fabric, allowing Web 2.0 developers to access real-time blockchain data from leading networks. Space and Time Labs , the team behind Space and Time (SxT), has announced a partnership with Microsoft Fabric to integrate blockchain data on its platform. The integration will feature data from top blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Sui networks. Through the integration of SxT, Microsoft Fabric developers will be able to access real-time, verifiable blockchain data within Microsoft Azure OneLake. Microsoft Fabric is a unified, end-to-end analytics platform designed to streamline data workflows and provide a central place for data management, processing, and analysis. On the other hand, SxT indexes popular blockchains and and verifies the data using zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs and makes it available for developers to query for app development and analytics. Nate Holiday, CEO of Space and Time Labs, believes the integration will help advance development of next gen applications on Microsoft Fabric as well as advance the adoption of Web3 globally. “We’re thrilled to expand our collaboration with Microsoft to provide verifiable blockchain data to enterprises, institutions, and developers building on Fabric,” Holiday stated on the integration. “This integration enables a wealth of new data-driven use cases across financial services, Web3 apps, and AI to be built on Microsoft technology.” As the leading platform providing Web3 and blockchain data directly, SxT will streamline access to this data across the Fabric ecosystem. This is aimed at providing a trusted and efficient solution for developers and enterprises to interact with on-chain data and use the data to build next-generation applications. The indexed data will be available for all Microsoft Fabric developers. "By integrating with Microsoft Fabric, Space and Time not only expands our ability to serve developers and enterprises with reliable data but also aligns with our mission to democratize technology across diverse industries, including Web3,” said Sruly Taber, Principal Product Manager, Microsoft Fabric at Microsoft. “This integration underscores our commitment to providing tools that enhance productivity and drive innovation at a global scale." While this marks the first partnership with Microsoft Fabric, Space and Time have collaborated and received funding from Microsoft in the past. The software firm welcomed Microsoft’s venture capital arm, M12, which participated in a $20 million Series A funding round for Space and Time after leading its strategic round in 2022.

COLLAT price rallies 240% as breakout clears way for multiple-X upside

COLLAT price has surged over 240% in just two days, breaking through major resistance levels and opening the path for further upside, with its low market cap signaling potential for multiple-X growth. Collaterize ( COLLAT ) is up 37% in the past 24 hours, continuing its breakout rally that began two days ago on May 17, when the price decisively pushed through the $0.27 resistance level with a spike in trading volume. Since that breakout, COLLAT continued climbing, reaching an intraday high of $0.89 today. This marks an approximate 240% gain at its peak in just two days. However, the price has since retraced and is currently trading around $0.78. Source: TradingView The rally follows months of sideways movement within a tight range since late March. A steady upward leg began on May 6, after the price tested key support around the $0.08 – $0.10 level—its lowest level in recent months. From there, buyers stepped in, gradually driving the price higher and setting the stage for the current rally. With this ongoing rally, COLLAT price has also broken above a major resistance level at $0.040, which had marked its post-launch peak. With both resistances now cleared, the path to the upside is now clear. Adding to the bullish case, the project currently holds a modest market cap of just $70 million, suggesting multiple-X growth potential—provided that trading volume and bullish momentum continue to support price action. However, the RSI is currently above 90, indicating extreme overbought conditions. Therefore, a pullback or consolidation is likely before any sustained move higher.
