Arcana plans to use the generated funds to boost usability and expand its current operations to facilitate growth.

During the fundraising, CEO and Co-founder Mayur Relekar reflected on the existing landscape with other decentralized storage companies. The CEO stated that privacy and data ownership are necessities for every product while emphasizing the need for app stacks to provide data privacy and security to developers, something that Arcana Network has already set out to do. Relekar disclosed that Arcana is working with various developers across the NFT sector, DeFi, social networks, Fintech, and health sector to offer privacy and data security services.

As proof of its state of the art blockchain protocol and ease-ofuse, Arcana developed its whitepaper. It's a straightforward and comprehensive document that contains a catalogue of products offered by Arcana to developers. All the information developers need to build secure and privacy-centered applications for users has been provided, with explanations of their key concepts. This, in turn, will help developers and even users understand how the blockchain works and what it provides.

Co-founder Aravindh Kumar, talking after the fundraising rounds, said that the participants in the fundraising believe in the company's vision to develop a platform that will give developers unlimited access to building DApps without worrying about security or risks of data loss. He also said that 60% of the funds would be used to build a community where authenticating users and verifying access won't be a problem. The EVM model will address some of the key issues faced by the DeFi ecosystem and eliminate all the complications associated with developing DApps.

Arcana Network is a decentralized storage and data privacy platform that was launched in 2019 by Mayur Relekar, Aravindh Kumar, and Abhishek Chaudhary. Arcana completed its seed funding in July and is soon launching its Testnet in October, with a token sale planned early 2022.
