AI Startup Donut Nabs $7M Pre-Seed to Pioneer Crypto’s First Agentic Browser
Another day, another crypto project swimming in venture capital—but this one might actually justify the hype. Donut just secured $7 million in pre-seed funding to build what it claims will be the first agentic browser for Web3.
Why it matters: If they pull this off, we’re looking at a browser that doesn’t just display dApps but actively negotiates DeFi yields, snipes NFT drops, and maybe even files your taxes (though let’s be real—crypto taxes remain a dystopian nightmare).
The kicker: While traditional VCs chase AI chatbots that hallucinate stock picks, Donut’s betting that the real money sits at the intersection of autonomous agents and on-chain activity. Either they’re about to make history or become another cautionary tweet thread.
