With all the money in crypto — how much of it is coming from venture capital firms?
2021 was a record year for crypto venture capital funding. Propelled by loose monetary policy and the aftermath of pandemic lockdowns, investors' increased risk appetites meant that more money than ever before flowed into crypto.
Venture capital funding analysis showed that crypto startups received $25.2 billion in 2021 compared to $3.1 billion in 2020 the year before — a 713% increase. All sectors in the crypto industry saw strong growth, with VC funding for NFT firms exploding to $4.8 billion from only $37 million in 2020. In total, the share of blockchain venture capital funding of the entire global venture capital market grew from 1% to 4%.
2022 is shaping up to be a more challenging year for crypto venture capital firms. But risk-aversion capital will continue to flow to the growing crypto industry in the coming years. As a retail investor, knowing the main players in the crypto VC market can make the difference between a profitable and unprofitable investment.
