Curvance, a DeFi protocol focused on liquidity and lending, said it received a seven-figure grant from the Wormhole Foundation to help build what it called DeFi’s “unified liquidity layer.” The announcement came via Curvance’s X account, but the publicly available search results do not include a full Wormhole Foundation press release specifically about this grant, so the claim is currently best supported by the project’s own social post and secondary reposts. The funding fits Wormhole’s broader role as an interoperability infrastructure provider that supports cross-chain applications and ecosystem growth. Wormhole has previously described itself as a platform for cross-chain messaging and has publicly backed ecosystem programs and contributor grants, including accelerator support and grants for core development and ZK-related trustless transfer work. For Curvance, the grant suggests an effort to expand cross-chain liquidity tooling, which matters because liquidity fragmentation remains one of the main technical and user-experience challenges in DeFi across multiple blockchains.
