The funding will be used for the advancement of the Immutable X protocol (IMX). It aims to do it with the help of token investments and grants. The native token on the Immutable protocol is IMX.

In addition to the direct investments and funding, Immutable will also bring in more support for the decentralized finance sector. It will be bringing in huge investors who are gaming and cryptocurrency oriented.

These major investors would include GameStop, King River Capital, Airtree, Double Peak, Arrington Capital, Animoca, and BITKRAFT.
