Raflux raises $300K pre-seed to bring pack ripping onchain
What's the deal? RafluxDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, an onchain collectibles platform, has closed a $300,000 pre-seed round from private investors. The Southeast Asia-based startup connects digital experiences with real-world graded trading cards, including Pokémon collectibles.
What's the endgame? Raflux is building what it calls "The Super Collectibles Experience," an ecosystem spanning digital and physical collecting. Its centrepiece is Super Gacha, a digital take on the ritual of ripping collectible packs.
How it works: Users pick a digital pack and shake to reveal the outcome — a graded physical collectible, USDC, or both. Super Gacha runs on Solana, with verifiable onchain randomness powered by MagicBlock VRF behind each reveal.
Collectors can keep pulls within the ecosystem, redeem them for physical delivery, or use a 90% buyback option. Raflux plans to add progression and reward mechanics as it scales.
Where the money goes: The round funds user acquisition, community and team growth, operations, and Raflux's first physical Vault. That Vault, planned for BSD City, Indonesia, is targeted for November–December 2026.
Why Indonesia? The company is building from Southeast Asia, where trading-card communities are established but crypto-native experiences around physical collectibles remain early. The Vault will act as a storage and redemption hub, a showroom, and a space for collectors to meet offline.
The signal: Raflux is betting that the anticipation of collecting — the reveal, the ownership, the stories — translates onchain. By pairing verifiable randomness with real graded cards, it is testing whether crypto infrastructure can win over a hobby still rooted in physical goods.
