2025 Venture Capital Financing Overview——



Total scale: $6.61 billion. It seems like a lot, but behind this number is actually a series of declines. Compared to $101 billion in 2024, it has dropped by 35%. Looking further back, this is the lowest since 2019—when it was only $6.9 billion.

The most outrageous comparison? The peak of financing in 2022 was $223 billion. Since then, the entire market has shrunk by 70%.

In simple terms, VC financing, which surged in recent years, has now hit the brakes. Project teams are finding it harder to raise funds, and capital attitudes have become more cautious. What does this adjustment mean for the entire Web3 ecosystem? It’s worth pondering carefully.

70% shrinkage, this is the real bear market, not those self-congratulatory "bottoms"

Oh my, from 223 billion down to 66 billion, that must hurt a lot --- Another year of difficult fundraising, it seems this year we’ll have to tighten our belts --- The madness of 2022 really can’t be repeated, now we have to cross the river by feeling the stones --- 70% shrinkage... Are VC们 really scared or are they truly sober? --- They talk about caution, but actually it’s just because they have no money or don’t want to chase quick profits, understand? --- Web3 now is like a squeezed lemon, capital has dispersed --- Difficult fundraising + many projects = hellish difficulty, entrepreneurs probably haven’t been sleeping well lately --- From sprinting to hitting the brakes, this contrast is indeed a bit extreme --- Looking at this data, I feel relieved, at least it shows the bubble is bursting, and it should burst

70% shrinkage, this market is really a roller coaster... --- Capital has cut a round of leek farmers and now has no money either? --- From 223 billion in 2022 to now 6.6 billion, just thinking about it hurts --- Everyone knows fundraising is difficult, the real issue is which projects can survive this wave --- They're starting to talk about ecosystem adjustments again, basically it's just a cold winter --- These data look hopeless, but for entrepreneurs, it might be a filter --- Wait, in 2019 it was only 6.9 billion, so are we still considered to have increased? --- Cautious capital is always better than reckless spending, at least it can reduce bad projects --- 6.6 billion is not a lot? I spit, compared to 2022, it's directly cut by ten times --- What should the Web3 ecosystem focus on? Less fundraising means projects can focus on building good stuff --- This is what a normal market should look like, it was too crazy before

70% shrinkage... It's really outrageous, the hype in 2022 was too intense.
