Crunch Lab Raises $5M!
We’re breaking the AI talent bottleneck with a decentralized network of 10,000+ ML engineers & 1,200+ PhDs.
Co-led by @galaxyhq and @RoadCapMgmt, with participation from @vaneck_us and @multicoin.
(9/9) Overall, Web3 fundraising remains on a record-breaking trajectory in 2025. Strong deal sizes, more late-stage rounds, and active exit markets highlight sustained confidence in the industry. If this pace continues, 2025 could set a new benchmark for Web3 startups!
(8/9) Web3 Infrastructure - Web3 infrastructure startups recorded a soft month in September compared to a strong YTD, though the total amount raised was broadly in line with Sep 24.
Gold is now the second largest reserve currency, behind the US dollar.
To understand why, you need to look at the history of fiat currencies (like the dollar) and hard currencies (like gold).
The way I see it, we’re currently facing a classic currency devaluation similar to what we saw in the 1970s or the 1930s. In both of those cases, fiat currencies around the world all went down together — and also went down in relationship to hard currencies, like gold.
If events today follow a similar pattern, that makes hard currencies an attractive asset to hold.
At least, that’s how it looks through my eyes. I’m curious to hear what you think. @masterinvestor
(9/9) Bigger rounds, rising deal sizes, and a steady exit pipeline point to growing institutional confidence. If trends sustain, 2025 could be one of the most robust funding years in Web3’s history.
