Industry is buzzing with big news— a top Silicon Valley venture capital firm announced on January 9th that it has completed its largest funding round since inception, raising $15 billion. How impressive is this number? In the US venture capital market of 2025, it accounts for over 18%.



More importantly, this VC mentioned cryptocurrency twice in its official announcement. Specifically, the statement: "Our mission is to ensure America wins the technological race of the next 100 years, starting with the key infrastructure of the future—artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency technology." Both implicitly and explicitly, it indicates that after having more capital, they will continue to increase their investments in the crypto market.

In simple terms, this is not just a funding news. It is a signal—those big institutions with real cash are viewing cryptocurrency technology as a strategic priority as important as AI.

How will this money be spent? The plan involves six major investment directions, including the American Dynamism fund allocating $1.176 billion, and the App fund receiving $1.7 billion…

Wow, $15 billion directly invested in crypto. This guy really isn’t afraid of losing money. --- Major institutions are starting to treat the crypto space like AI investments. What does that mean? It means it’s time to get on board. --- Two withdrawals? That’s not a hint, it’s a declaration. --- American venture capitalists really see crypto as a strategic level, and we’re still here hesitating. --- $1.7 billion for the App fund? I just want to know which projects this money will finally flow into. --- Silicon Valley’s big players are already involved. What are retail investors still waiting for? --- Such a level of funding announcement usually isn’t made lightly. Is the spring of crypto really here? --- $15 billion accounts for 18%. That shows the big players are still thinking about AI. Don’t be fooled by marketing. --- Looks like another round of “harvesting” is coming. Hopefully, this time, the losses won’t be too bad.

ngl, 150B deployment with explicit crypto positioning in their mandate is basically institutional capitulation dressed up as "strategy." the MEV extraction surface alone in next-gen protocols is gonna be wild when that capital actually flows through. 18% of annual VCapital allocation? that's not market signal, that's market architecture reshuffling.

150 billion, now this is truly an all-in in crypto. The big capital's intuition never lies, and now AI and crypto are really on the same page. --- The folks in Silicon Valley have finally spoken clearly: crypto is no longer gambling, it's a strategy. --- Wait, 1.7 billion for the App fund? Are they planning to create something big? --- Damn, occupying 18% of the total US VC market—this scale is really outrageous. By the way, could this be paving the way for a major project? --- The key is that crypto is mentioned twice, and not just casually. What does this imply? A portion of this money will definitely flow into the crypto space. --- The idea that the US needs to win the technological race sounds like they're trying to whitewash crypto haha. --- 150 billion, I just want to know which projects this will be invested in. Right now, it's all about who can attract the most. --- Hmm, wait, is this really just a funding news? Feels like a signal before a market rally.
