EarnOS completes US$6 million Pre-A round of financing and leads the 1kx investment

Digital advertising startup EarnOS completed a $6 million Pre-A round of financing, led by 1kx, with Coinbase Ventures, CircleVentures and SocialGraphVentures participating. EarnOS said its application Ero has completed the testing phase and will be available in the United States, Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom. The app is designed to help brands verify real human Internet traffic, reduce waste caused by robots, and reward "real digital behavior." EarnOS also said it has received a four-year, non-dilutive strategic investment of US$12.5 million from Verona. Verona, formerly known as XION, is a Layer1 blockchain. EarnOS stated that the Ero app is partially supported by Verona and is used to enable global verification, user guidance and reward issuance.
