Doppler Raises $9M Seed Round

Doppler, an onchain asset launch protocol, has raised $9 million in a seed funding round led by Pantera Capital, with participation from Variant, Figment Capital, and Coinbase Ventures. The funding follows Doppler’s rapid growth as a core piece of market infrastructure for token launches on Base.

Founded nine months ago, Doppler has become the route to market for new onchain assets. More than 90% of new DEX pools on Base are now launched through the protocol. Its infrastructure is used by applications including Zora, an onchain creator platform, Base App, a consumer crypto application, Paragraph, a decentralized publishing tool, and FxHash, a generative art marketplace.

Doppler provides a unified system for token deployment, vesting, liquidity setup, governance, and fee routing. A key element of the protocol is its price discovery auctions, which are designed to reduce the impact of automated trading strategies and create protocol-owned liquidity at launch.
