The risk capital company Coinfund, which specializes in crypto, concludes financing round with $ 158 million for new VC funds.

Coinfund, a risk capital company specializing in crypto, has successfully completed a financing round for its latest VC fund, Coinfund Seed IV Fund. The company was able to collect $ 158 million from various investors.

According to the coin find, the fund's investor base is composed of a mixture of family offices, institutional investors and wealthy private individuals. This message comes on the market despite a general decline in VC investments. The amount collected exceeded the original financing goal of $ 125 million.

The Coinfund Seed IV Fund supports pre-seed and seed investments in new and ambitious founding teams in the entire Web3 ecosystem. The fund concentrates on projects that have a clear but not consistent vision of how applications of the next generation are built on web3 rails.

In a Twitter thread, the VC company based in New York admitted that the current environment for crypto projects was difficult. Both basic technical challenges would have to be managed as well as the further developing regulatory landscape. However, Coinfund emphasized the courage and long -term orientation that are required during this period of structure.

In the past month, Coinfund has invested several million dollars in projects in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), Layer 1 blockchains and blockchain-based financial services. This included investments in Giza, a AI platform for smart contracts and web3 protocols, as well as in the Smart Contract platform Neutron, which is based on Cosmos.

Jake Brukman, CEO and co-founder of Coinfund, commented on this milestone and thanked the investors for the deep trust that they have brought to his company despite the crypto bear market. He was optimistic about the industry and emphasized that Coinfund continued to invest in platform resources and staff to find their way in an up -and -coming and sometimes unclear category and to support the growth of the portfolio companies. Brukman added: "Cooinfund is proud to identify and support up -and -coming teams and technologies before they become a trend."
