"Has added five executives across multiple divisions, including sales, product development and professional services, and has nearly doubled its workforce since closing its last venture round in early May. The hirings reflect Chia’s promise to spend a good portion of the $61 million it raised in its recent Series D capital round that was led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Richmond Global Ventures. Chia now has 40 employees, including the latest newcomers, up from 21 on May 3, the day Chia closed its funding. Hoffman expects to add another 30 people by year’s end, about half in research and development and the remainder in “various business roles.” Cohen has for years made clear his intent to take Chia public."
