Crypto VC Funding: Verb Technology leads with $558m raise, Satsuma follows with $217.6m

VCs are throwing money at blockchain like it's 2021 again—and Verb Technology just bagged the year's biggest crypto funding round at a staggering $558 million. Not to be outdone, Satsuma locked down $217.6 million in a classic 'fear of missing out' play by investors.

Who needs profitability when you've got hype? The usual suspects—institutional funds, crypto-native VCs, and that one hedge fund that still hasn't learned its lesson—are piling back into web3 infrastructure. Verb's haul suggests someone's betting big on enterprise blockchain adoption, while Satsuma's raise smells like another layer-2 scaling solution begging for actual users.

Let's see how long until these nine-figure war chests turn into eight-figure write-offs. The crypto funding circus is back—grab your popcorn and watch the 'disruptive tech' narrative collide with reality.
