Moca Network, a decentralized digital identity project created by Animoca Brands, today announced a partnership with OKX Ventures, the investment arm of crypto exchange OKX. The collaboration is meant to accelerate growth for applications that build on Moca Network’s identity infrastructure, with both parties committing capital, platform resources, and operational support to emerging projects within the ecosystem.

Under the terms of the deal, OKX Ventures will dedicate a portion of its MOCA Coin reserves to co-investment opportunities surfaced through the partnership. Those allocations will target teams developing identity-driven consumer applications and use cases that use Moca Network’s core tools, including AIR Kit and Moca Chain. Both Animoca Brands and OKX Ventures retain the option for follow-on investment as portfolio projects mature.

The agreement extends beyond capital deployment. OKX Ventures will grant selected builders access to OKX’s global platform infrastructure, including payment and on-ramp services, wallet integration, and broader ecosystem resources. The aim is to lower onboarding barriers for developers and end users alike, smoothing the path from prototype to scaled product.

Jeff Ren, OKX Ventures founder, said: “Animoca Brands and Moca Network play an important role in shaping the future of digital property rights and interconnected digital ecosystems. We are pleased to strengthen our partnership with them in order to support the builders who are creating real, measurable value for users.”

Yat Siu, co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands, said: “OKX is a trusted and long-standing supporter of Animoca Brands and Moca Network. This strategic partnership deepens our collaboration and shared conviction that identity-focused infrastructure will play a central role in the next phase of the Internet.”

Building on an existing investment relationship

Today’s announcement builds on OKX Ventures’ prior backing of Moca Network. In November 2024, Animoca Brands disclosed a $10.0M fundraise that included participation from OKX Ventures, establishing the financial relationship that the new partnership now expands. OKX Ventures itself operates with an initial capital commitment of $100.0M and focuses on identifying blockchain projects with long-term structural value on a global scale.
