Celo has great seed investors. The initial funding round was $6.5M. Top-tier investment funds have took part in that stage: Andreessen Horowitz, General Catalyst, Polychain Capital, Coinbase, Social Capital, and Lakestar, among others. Also, a number of high-profile angel investors are also backing Celo, including LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, Twitter and Square cofounder and CEO Jack Dorsey, Venmo cofounder Andrew Kortina, and former Citigroup chairman Dick Parsons. That proves the world-class level of the project. The project is not going to conduct ICO. As a result, no token metrics is available. Moreover, tokens could be mined by simple phone connection and also it could be distributed through social subsidies. As a result, it is almost impossible to acquire tokens for investments purposes.
