BTCCSquare news:
Web3 startups secured $9.6 billion in venture capital during Q2 2025, the second-highest quarterly total on record. Despite a multi-year low in deal volume, investors shifted toward larger, infrastructure-focused bets—validator networks and computing services dominated funding rounds. Private token sales surged while public offerings dwindled, signaling institutional investors' growing influence.
Outlier Ventures reports just 306 deals closed in Q2, the fewest since mid-2023. Median deal sizes swelled across all stages, with Series A rounds rebounding sharply to $17.6 million. The trend reflects maturation: capital consolidates around foundational projects rather than speculative early-stage ventures.
