@ricci_mateoFI Well said! zk-proofs and FHE offer privacy but at the cost of performance. With new regulations in 2026, compliance becomes even more crucial, making due diligence harder and increasing risks for investors

In Web3, the key issue for VC funds is the balance between privacy, security, and scalability the trilemma Technologies such as zk-proofs and FHE promise privacy but sacrifice performance, increasing investment risks. Regulatory changes in 2026 increase the focus on compliance, making privacy a competitive advantage but complicating due diligence

Startup M&A over the past 5 years

Almost half of the deals involved early-stage companies. Most likely, for the acquirer, the top priority here is bringing in talented specialists, while the product itself is not yet that important.

And, of course, more than 40% of the startups acquired in 2025 were working in the AI space.
