The recent popularity of the Manus project has indeed reached its peak. From fundraising in July this year to being acquired by Meta at the end of the year, it completed a turnaround from Web3 fundraising to being incorporated under a major internet company in just a few months.

The phenomenon of timeline flooding also indicates how much attention this acquisition has garnered in the market. Projects that can attract giants like Meta during their fundraising stage reveal a lot—whether it's technical strength, application potential, or market prospects—all have been recognized.

From independent fundraising to being acquired by a major company, this path is a watershed for many Web3 projects. On one hand, it means the project has gained stronger resource support and accelerated commercialization; on the other hand, it also reflects that in the current Web3 ecosystem, the integration of technological innovation and market application is attracting more mainstream capital's attention.

Sigh, Manus has been really impressive this time, but I just want to ask—during these months from fundraising to acquisition, did early free participants break even or get wiped out?

Acquired by Meta in just a few months, this speed is truly incredible, much faster than fundraising. --- Speaking of Web3, these past few months have been really interesting, with big companies starting to take it seriously. --- Manus, this time, it seems that only those with solid technology can be recognized so quickly. You can't just get funding and join big companies easily. --- From fundraising to acquisition, now that's what you call an exit. Other projects should learn from this. --- Meta moving so quickly? It seems they are definitely targeting something. --- Didn't expect to see such M&A news at the end of the year. Web3 is really starting to attract mainstream capital's attention.

Damn, Manus' speed is really incredible. Was it really acquired by Meta in just a few months? I have some doubts about whether it was really that smooth.

This is the taste of selling out; the Web3 free persona has been shattered into pieces.

Huh, Manus was acquired by Meta? The speed is incredible, the Web3 track is really accelerating. Meta's move shows whether they have the real deal; being acquired in just a few months indicates genuine technology. Big companies are starting to take Web3 seriously, which is a signal. From funding to acquisition, this path is quite exciting... but will the funding money depreciate? It's another story of big corporations; what about the independence of Web3? I need to think this transaction over. The reason for the viral spread might be... big companies grabbing chicken legs. Being integrated into their fold in just a few months, isn't that being absorbed? Meta's vision is still sharp, but will Web3 be domesticated? The hype is indeed high; I just wonder how the technology itself is.

theoretically speaking, if we model manus' acquisition trajectory through a cross-rollup state verification lens... the speed here is almost unsettling, ngl. seven months from web3 funding to meta's embrace? that's not just momentum, that's a recursive proof of concept that traditional vc rounds *wish* they could achieve
