In Q2 2026, venture investment in crypto and blockchain companies rose 31% from the previous quarter to $5.683 billion, with later-stage firms capturing most of the capital. Later-stage companies received 78.3% of the funding. The number of deals increased 10% to 384, and pre-seed and seed rounds accounted for 39.8% of those transactions. Younger companies remained active, but the dollars were concentrated among businesses further along in their development. U.S.-headquartered companies attracted 73.5% of the capital across 39.1% of the deals. Their share of investment dollars was substantially larger than their share of transactions.
