According to Odaily, Singapore-based cryptocurrency research startup SoSoValue has announced the launch of a global competition called 'Brain Battle'. The competition aims to build a strong global community of researchers by encouraging the submission of high-quality, in-depth research content. It also seeks to promote information equality by motivating cryptocurrency researchers from various countries and backgrounds to participate.

The Brain Battle competition opened for registration and submission on July 8, offering a prize pool of up to $50,000 and a Brain EXPs points system. The points system and badge system have been designed to incentivize sharing and voting. Public voting for the competition will begin on August 1, with the final winners announced after August 14.

Earlier this year, SoSoValue completed a seed funding round of $4.15 million. Investors included HongShan, GSR Markets, Alumni Ventures, CoinSummer Labs, and OnePiece Labs. The funding round also saw participation from the co-founder of Gitcoin, early Ethereum investors, and founders of top Web3 and AI technology companies.
