Kain Warwick, the founder of Synthetix and Infinex, recently responded on social media to industry concerns about project funding. He straightforwardly stated that he had personally covered the operational costs for the first 18 months of the project, and he would continue to do so if necessary. After this statement was made, many people realized how great the pressure of fundraising truly is — Infinex's public offering has only been underway for two days, and the subscription amount is only $600,000, clearly falling short of the target. In the context of generally cold Web3 fundraising, such self-commitments from the founder can somewhat demonstrate the project's determination. However, relying solely on personal investment is definitely not a long-term solution, and whether subsequent fundraising can turn the situation around still depends on market response.
