Investors and EQ tokens

Equilibrium CEO Alex Melikhov has announced new investors who have purchased EQ tokens. Among the many others, you can find names such as CMS Holdings, KR1, Genesis Block Ventures, Signum Capital. Does that mean Equilibrium will quite possibly be one of the parachains on Polkadot?

And it is the aforementioned investors who are expected to invest this sum of money in order for the project to acquire one of the 100 slots.

Equilibrium
