Matt Harbottle co-founded Melbourne-based SitePoint.com 10 years ago with Matt Mickiewicz, and grew it into a profitable, multi-million dollar company without any venture capital or outside funding. The company has been profitable every single month since its inception and is actively involved in publishing & marketplaces for Web Professionals.In 2008, Mark spun off 99designs out of SitePoint as its own separate business. 99designs has become the market leader in crowdsourced graphic design and currently sees a new graphic uploaded to the site every 7 seconds and pays out over $1,000,000 to designers every month. In April 2011 99designs received $35m in a Round A led by Accel Partners.99designs has run crowdsourced design projects for tens of thousands of small business owners, as well as big brands like Adidas, TiVo, Dish Networks, and bestselling authors like Tim Ferriss and Rick Warren (author of â€œThe Purpose Driven Lifeâ€).In June of 2009, Mark and Matt launched Flippa.com, a marketplace for buying and selling small websites via auction. Flippa currently sells over $2 million worth of website assets per month, with its biggest sale ever being ReTweet.com which sold for $250,000.In January of 2011, Learnable.com was launched, again as a spin off from SitePoint.

RISE Labs — The Based Gigagas EVM Layer 2
Chronicle Labs — Evolving from the Oracle Core Unit at MakerDAO, Chronicle Protocol was created by the unit’s development team. Although the Oracles that underpinned Chronicle Protocol had been securing MakerDAO’s $10B+ collateral since 2016, the technology and its unique innovations weren’t available outside of Maker’s portfolio.In 2021, the team receivedsupport from MakerDAO to spin out the proprietary technology and form a new entity and brand. Chronicle Protocol was born.Chronicle continues to service MakerDAO and now, for the first time, is rolling out its on-chain Oracle services to support the wider Web3 world.Chronicle Protocol has been developed to solve many of the current pain points of on-chain Oracles and DeFi. On-chain Oracles, particularly on computationally expensive blockchains such as Ethereum, are bottlenecking the development of DeFi with an exorbitant cost of service and a lack of feasible scalability. Through developing a proprietary solution called Scribe, the team at Chronicle has built a blockchain-agnostic, ubiquitously accessible, scalable, end-to-end verifiable, and decentralized Oracle. The protocol’s unique architecture enables an ecosystem that delivers 100% decentralization and transparency. Every byte of data can be traced back to each Feed’s original data source queries, and new Oracles can be deployed (and updated) with the click of a button on the Chronicle Dashboard.Inspired by Ancient Greece’s Herodotus (the Father of History), Chronicle Protocol aims to be the world’s first open and verifiable data chronicler. Transparency, democracy, and accessibility are the columns on which Chronicle has built its temple, and industry-leading scalability, integration, and security are the features that power the protocol.Verifiable data, accessible to all - delivered securely and affordably.
