TORTOLA, British Virgin Islands: $ARB #AI--Pheasant Network has secured 2M USD across its seed round and ecosystem grants to advance the next generation of interoperability powered by AI × Intent. The round was led by mint, joined by 90s and several individual investors, with additional support from the Ethereum Foundation, the Optimism Foundation, Polygon Labs and multiple Layer 2 ecosystems. This new capital enables the team to accelerate development of a smarter, more intuitive cross-chain experience that brings artificial intelligence into the core of decentralized finance (DeFAI).
As the crypto ecosystem shifts toward a deeply interconnected, multi chain environment, users face rising complexity, fragmented liquidity, and greater risks of operational mistakes. Traditional cross-chain transactions require users to manually compare routes, assess cost and speed, and verify safety. Intent based systems offer a promising solution by allowing users to express the outcome they want while the system determines how to execute it. Pheasant Network aims to push this forward by combining Intent with AI, enabling adaptive execution that can evaluate trade offs, optimize paths and handle multi step flows across networks.
Pheasant Network currently supports Ethereum and more than 30 Layer 2 networks. Its Optimistic Interoperability mechanism has processed over 200M USD in cross-chain volume while maintaining one of the fastest and lowest cost performance levels in the market. With the new funding, the project will expand the utility of its native token PNT, introduce AI assisted routing and automated yield flows, and build connectivity for a multi stablecoin environment including emerging RWA linked use cases. Additional roadmap items include releasing a utility oriented Pheasant NFT series and enabling one click cross-chain actions that simplify advanced DeFAI operations.
The project is also adopting emerging Intent standards such as ERC7683 and has launched Pheasant Points, a loyalty system that visualizes contribution and engagement across the ecosystem. These initiatives strengthen the foundation for a unified AI driven user experience.
Pheasant Network expresses gratitude to its global community, whose support made this milestone possible. The team will continue delivering updates as it moves toward a fully AI enhanced DeFAI ecosystem.
