In accordance with Ecoinimist, despite a $500 billion market crash in October, crypto venture capitalists are doubling down on projects with real revenue and strong risk management. Ajna Capital’s CIO, Eva Oberholzer, noted that the selloff has triggered a shift in investor priorities, with a focus on unit economics and treasury controls. High-quality startups in blockchain infrastructure and real-world asset tokenization continue to attract interest. Crypto companies raised over $728.5 million in the first week of November, bringing 2025 funding to $22 billion, double 2024’s total. Ripple Labs raised $500 million in a strategic round led by Fortress Investment Group, while Canaan Inc. secured $72 million in equity funding. Future Holdings also raised $34 million to build a Bitcoin treasury company in Europe.
