Not only is the heat around the corner, but a new month means new data around the enterprise capital expenditure.
According to Blockworks Research Data, the total funds of $ 594 million in total last month.
As you can see, funding created a very small piece of overall pie, with the M&A leading the month when it comes to the money spent. More than $ 2.9 billion moved to deals last month, most of which came from $ 2.9 billion coinbase-deribbit deal.
Overall, the funding was small on the side, especially compared to the last few months. Is it related? I personally do not think so. Not until it becomes a trend, and it will take a few more months in a row to install it.
There were about 61 increased announcements, again less than what we have seen earlier, as depicted in the chart below.
While the speed clearly slowed down, it is equal to the season. Taking a look at the activity from Last May Now, it seems that a dip has been seen in both years.
There is nothing that has been replaced by the emotion-wise that seems related, which will inspire me to believe that the dip is seasonal. But we are going to see what June looks.
According to the tie terminal, it seems that the average venture announced last month was the capital round seed stage, in which the strategic rounds were coming to another.
Seeds are small rounds, as they are one of the first rounds raised by projects to contribute to overall yoga. Strategic rounds can also be small, given that they usually have a way for a start-up that not only use some capital, but also support investors.
So not most Impressive Month but, as I said, it is not yet related. The end of June will wrap in the second quarter, and we will be able to take that data and compare with the first quarter.
Robert of pitchbook take first told CNBC that he expects a crypto funding at the top of $ 18 billion this year, and this number still looks like a real possibility.
