Crypto Market Recovery Triggers Increased VC Funding, Renewed Confidence

As the market enters a crypto bull run, this in turn is triggering positive sentiment with several venture capital investors firms eyeing up new projects to invest in.

The last few years have been followed by scandals and the FTX collapse in the crypto space,  but it seems the community is now seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.

Venture capital investment in crypto startups climbed 2.5% to $1.9 billion in Q4 2023, marking the first such rise since Q2 2022, according to recent PitchBook data reports Shalini Nagarajan from Cryptonews.

 Crypto Market in a Healthy Recovery Phase


“After a downturn, signs of market recovery or stabilization has encouraged VCs to invest again. An increase in the interest from institutional investor, capital inflow, and transaction volumes has signaled a healthy recovery phase for the crypto market,” James Wo, Founder and CEO of investment firm DFG told Cryptonews.

There is more positive sentiment during the last quarter of 2023 which was driven by the imminent approval of spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

“In regions where regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrencies and blockchain projects become clearer and more favourable, VCs may feel more confident investing,” explains Wo.

For example, regulatory clarity can reduce legal uncertainties and risks associated with investing in the cryptocurrency space.

Japan Encourages Local VCs To Invest In Web3


On February 16, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) disclosed that the Japanese cabinet has approved a proposal allowing domestic venture capitalists (VCs) to invest in Web3 startups. The legal reform will enable Japanese VCs to participate in projects issuing virtual currencies, previously limited to international investors.

“The Japanese government has recently moved to enable specific VCs to directly invest in cryptocurrency and Web3 startups, which will potentially boost VC investments in the Japanese Web3 market,” explains Wo.

According to METI, the approved revision entails amendments to four key acts. One of these four important acts adopted by the ministry is the Act on Investment Limited Partnership Agreement, reports Jimmy Aki from Cryptonews.

The increase in VC funding in the crypto space suggests a renewed confidence in the potential of blockchain technologies and digital assets, Wo explains.

Most recently, AltLayer, a rollups platform focusing on blockchain scalability, raised $14.4 million in a strategic funding round. According to a social media post by AltLayer, the fundraising round was co-led by Polychain Capital and Hack VC, to expand the company’s team and advance its rollup infrastructure.

Remain Cautious 


As always conducting thorough due diligence around new crypto projects, as well as seeking transparency, is important for all investors.

“It’s important for investors and stakeholders to remain cautious and conduct thorough due diligence, as the crypto market is known for its volatility and regulatory complexities. The long-term impact of increased VC funding in the crypto space will depend on various factors, including technological advancements, market adoption, regulatory developments, and the overall economic environment,” said Wo.
