In 2021, venture capital investment in crypto and DeFi reached unprecedented heights, signaling a fundamental shift in how institutional money views decentralized technology. From billion-dollar bets on blockchain infrastructure to seed-stage funding for experimental DeFi protocols, the world's top VCs made it clear: this space is no longer a fringe experiment.
Our report, Venture Capitals in the Crypto and DeFi Industries, maps this investment surge across geographies, growth stages, and sectors. We analyze where the capital is flowing, which firms are leading the charge, from Sequoia Capital to DST Global, and which projects are shaping the future of decentralized finance.
Behind every protocol, wallet, or token lies a funding decision. Understanding who backs these ventures, and why, reveals the broader forces shaping the crypto ecosystem's trajectory.
Whether you're interested in venture capital, blockchain technology, or the future of financial infrastructure, this report offers a data-driven lens into one of the most dynamic investment frontiers of the decade.
This is why the Bocconi Students Fintech Society has made VC activity in crypto and DeFi the focus of this research: because in a space built on disruption, knowing where the smart money goes is the first step to understanding where the industry is headed.
