🫥 Venture Investment Guide for Web3

In the first half of 2024, crypto startups raised over $6.45 billion. This surge in investment is tied to Bitcoin's price movement, which hit a new all-time high on March 14, surpassing $73,000 per BTC, opening up new fundraising opportunities in the market.

However, investment volumes remain below the peaks seen in 2021–2022, when monthly investments ranged between $4 to $7 billion.

This is due to several factors:

✔️ Following the launch of BTC-ETF and ETH-ETF, the cryptocurrency market has become more mature and regulated, leading to a more cautious approach from investors.

✔️ The macroeconomic environment remains challenging. Rising interest rates and volatility in global financial markets are putting pressure on investment volumes.

Despite this, growing interest in cryptocurrencies brings optimism that the fundraising market within the Web3 space will continue to evolve and attract more private investments.

We've prepared a guide to help you better understand investment strategies and make informed decisions, regardless of your experience level.

🫥 CEX Listing: Success or Failure?

In the first 6 months of 2024, the number of new tokens listed on centralized exchanges (CEX) surpassed the figures for all of 2023. On tier-1 exchanges, this number grew by 11.6% (2066 new tokens), while on tier-3 and lower exchanges — by 32% (488 tokens).

Why is this happening?

✔️ The price of the leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, increased by more than 50%.

✔️ Expectations of regulatory easing after the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

✔️ Possible support for the crypto market if Donald Trump wins the upcoming elections.

Listings on CEX act as a powerful catalyst. After the token generation event, trading volumes significantly increase, attracting new token holders. But is everything as rosy as it seems?
