Binance Labs Refutes SkyArk Chronicles’ Funding Claims

SkyArk Chronicles, a self-proclaimed AAA gaming platform, declared a triumphant $15 million funding round led by Binance Labs, garnering attention from investors and enthusiasts alike. However, Binance Labs swiftly addressed the claim, emphasizing its non-participation in the recent financing.

This counter-statement has sparked curiosity in the crypto community, with blockchain enthusiasts now seeking more clarity on the matter. Notably, in a recent post, Binance Labs clarified that SkyArk Chronicles was incubated and invested in during 2021 through Incubation Season 3, distancing itself from the latest funding round. Binance Lab stated:

“Please note that Binance Labs did not participate in the project’s latest financing round this year. Thank you all for your attention.”

As the conflicting statements intensified, SkyArk Chronicles also made a post on the X platform, highlighting the 2021 incubation and investment. In addition, the gaming platform maintained that the recently announced funding was the “first and only round of investment raised.” Meanwhile, the dispute raises concerns about transparency in the crypto space and highlights the need for accurate reporting, especially in an industry driven by trust and credibility.

Unraveling The Controversy

A previous post SkyArk Chronicles’ on January 12, 2024, outlining Binance Labs as the lead along with other notable players has created a buzz in the crypto market and gained attention from the market watchers.
