📰 A noticeable contrast has emerged in September’s crypto funding: there are only 61 public projects, down 1.6% month-over-month and 35.1% year-over-year, yet total funding is about $1.269 billion—up 71.1% month-over-month. Fewer projects mean the money is concentrating into a smaller number of big deals.
🔥 Last week, the blockchain industry disclosed 10 investment and financing rounds, with a total size exceeding $159 million. The largest single deal came from fintech company Jeeves, which raised $110 million in its Series C. In its international payments, about 50% to 60% is already settled using stablecoins such as USDC and EURC.
💡 Limited, a crypto enterprise banking platform, also completed a $18.5 million seed round. It’s not building a single wallet; instead, it brings together corporate accounts, Visa cards, payments, treasury management, and the sending/receiving of crypto assets. It also integrates channels like ACH, SEPA, Pix, and SWIFT. Honestly, institutions are now more willing to pay for products that can directly serve enterprises.
👀 On the prediction market side, Raven received strategic financing from Coinbase Ventures and CMCC Global, with a pre-money valuation of $90 million. It has already provided liquidity for over 3,000 contracts, covering sports, crypto, macroeconomics, and entertainment.
🤔 Meanwhile, AI funding is clearly even stronger: OpenAI received a $10 billion investment from SoftBank, and Helix Digital Infrastructure secured $1 billion from the Samsung Group. Crypto projects are starting to place more emphasis on payments and enterprise services. Which do you favor more—stablecoin payments, or prediction markets?
