Colony Lab, a community-driven accelerator for the Avalanche (AVAX) ecosystem, has unveiled a new decentralized fundraising platform poised to revolutionize access to seed investments in early-stage crypto projects, according to the latest information shared with Finbold on May 15.
Historically limited to the realm of venture capitalists and high-net-worth individuals, these opportunities are now open to a broader audience, thanks to Colony Lab’s innovative approach.
Liquid Vesting on Colony Labs
A standout feature of the new platform is “Liquid Vesting,” a pioneering concept in the world of cryptocurrencies.

This feature gives investors unprecedented ability to trade their locked or vesting tokens on Colony’s decentralized exchange (DEX) during the lockup period.
With the new model, Liquid Vesting ensures that users can freely trade their tokens before they are fully vested, without affecting the secondary market.
Naturally, all transactions occur on-chain, maintaining a high level of transparency and security.
Democratizing crypto with seed sales
Elie Le Rest, CEO and Co-Founder of Colony Lab, shared the vision behind these advancements:
“When we developed the platform and the ‘Liquid Vesting’ feature, our aim was to make investing in crypto simple and flexible for everyone. We hope these enhancements will create more opportunities for early investors and improve liquidity in the primary market. Our goal is to transform investment practices in the blockchain world by prioritizing clarity, security, and openness. Colony Lab is at the forefront of making early-stage investments more dynamic and accessible.”
After two years of dedicated development, Colony Lab’s platform and Liquid Vesting feature now enable users to invest directly in seed sales from the outset.
This initiative introduces much-needed liquidity to the primary market, broadening access to early-stage investments and fostering a more inclusive investment environment.
Colony Lab’s community, with over 8,000 active users and a collective net worth of $200 million, stands to benefit from these innovative features.
The launch thus marks a significant milestone in making early-stage crypto investments accessible to a wider audience, reinforcing Colony Lab’s position as a market leader.
