Supra
Most Layer 1s rent their oracles, bridges, and randomness from other companies. Supra built all of it into one chain - and is betting 500,000 transactions a second that owning the whole stack beats gluing it together.
Stan Richter
Stan Richter is co-founder and CEO of signageOS, the company that built a unification layer between digital signage hardware and the CMS platforms that run on top of it. Founded in Prague in 2016, signageOS solves the fragmentation problem that has plagued digital signage for decades - dozens of SoC operating systems, dozens of manufacturers, no common API. Richter turned that chaos into a business, bootstrapped growth to global scale, raised $4.2M from Reflex Capital, relocated to San Francisco, won the 2025 Outstanding Individual award at the Global Digital Signage Awards, and in January 2026 unveiled Supra - an encrypted edge-streaming platform that extends the usable life of existing hardware by two to five years.
