纵观整个2022年,加密投融资领域完成了从狂热到寒冬的180度大转弯。

根据 CB insight 统计和公开市场数据,整理出来今年最5家最活跃的加密投资机构以及其投资版图,这些信息或许能给为我们做未来趋势判断时提供参考。

纵观整个2022年,加密投融资领域完成了从狂热到寒冬的180度大转弯。

2022年Q1,Crypto 投融资市场以超100亿美元的融资总额,问鼎了自比特币诞生以来的单季投融资记录,同时也创出了连续7个月的正向增长记录,期间的资本增量高达260多亿美元,成就了前所未有的加密投资黄金时代。

之后,伴随着Luna的崩盘和美联储的持续加息,从第二季度开始,Crypto 资本市场开始掉头向下,无论是机构出手次数还是投机金额都开始显著减少。

在市场转熊之后,还有哪些机构保持着投资的积极性呢?他们关注的赛道都有哪些?根据 CB insight 统计和公开市场数据,整理出来今年最5家最活跃的加密投资机构以及其投资版图,这些信息或许能给为我们做未来趋势判断时提供参考。

1、Coinbase Ventures

作为一家美国 CVC 机构(Corporate Venture Capital),Coinbase Ventures 依托于交易所的品牌优势,在整个2022年大举进攻,是所有投资机构中出手次数最多的一家。在前三个季度,它分别投资的次数为30次、17次和23次,第四季度,根据公开信息统计,目前已有11笔的投资记录,合计达到了81次。

此外,据 crypto-fundraising 数据,Coinbase Ventures 投资企业数量累计也才157家,也就是说成立于2018年的 Coinbase Ventures ,今年投出的项目数量超过了过去三年的总和,即使是在熊市依旧保持了相对高频的出手次数。

在起投资版图方面,主要集中在基础设施和DeFi领域,特别是前者,目前新生的公链中不少都能找到 Coinbase 的影子,如果从项目融资金额来看,今年其参与超过1亿美元级别的项目仅有Yuga Labs、Sui、Aptos和 Layer Zero四个项目。

2、Animoca Brands

Animoca Brands 成立于2014年,本是香港一家专注手机游戏研发公司,之后转型成为数字资产企业,通过向游戏玩家提供NFT数字资产服务,乘着2021年 NFT 的发展东风,迅速成长为区块链游戏领域的顶级玩家,并逐渐发展成为链游领域的专业投资公司。相比其他投资机构,Animoca Brands 鉴于其本身的属性,其投资的项目大多是链戏、NFT或与链上游戏相关的衍生项目,但其势力版图也在向其他领域扩展。

在其投资的版图中,游戏始终是 Animoca Brands 核心,在数量上,游戏类占到了其今年所有投资项目的60%以上,超过1亿美元的项目融资中只有三个,分别是 Yuga Labs、Polygon 和 Ronin。前三季度,Animoca Brands 分别出手投资34次、23次和8次,Q4已公布的投资记录是5笔,分别是借贷协议Liqiwid、游戏 foragers and fighters、NFT项目 Wanderers、元宇宙项目VCORE和游戏数据引擎thirdwave。

Animoca Brands 全年总计投资了近70家企业,在活跃度上仅次于Coinbase Ventures。但从Q1-Q4投资数量的变化来看,Animoca 的投资战线大幅度收缩,虽然整个投资市场都在萎缩,但相比 Coinbase、a16z等机构,Animoca Brands 的收缩程度更加明显,这也反应出了加密游戏领域受到的市场环境冲击更大。

3、Andreessen Horowitz(a16z )

a16z 作为一家美国的顶级VC机构,在 Crypto 领域有着极大的影响力,前三季度 a16z 投资次数分别是13次、22次和8次,第四季度目前公开的记录是6笔,分别投向了MMO 游戏 foragers and fighters、zkSync开发公司Matter Labs、Web3开发者平台 buildspace 、Uniswap、Web3电商平台 Ray 和加密数据协议公司 Golden。

今年 a16z 总计投资了50多家企业,主要分布在区块链服务应用、公链和游戏等领域,其中参投金额超过1亿美元项目多达17个,这点比上文的 Coinbase Ventures 和 Animoca Brands 都要多,一般来说融资超过1亿美元的项目都已发展出了一定的竞争壁垒,度过了最早期的发展阶段,这说明了a16z 更加偏向于相对成熟的加密初创企业,并押注大量资金,也进一步说明了 a16z 雄厚的资金实力。

在这些融资亿元项目,除了Sui、Aptos、Aleo、zkSync等一些耳熟能详的项目之外,还有诸如:Nova Labs、Autograph、Alecemy 等社区讨论相对较少的项目,而且在这些项目中, a16z 还是以领投的角色深度参与的。

4、Shima Capital

Shima Capital 是一家总部位于旧金山的投资基金,在2022年的四个季度中,分别投资的项目数量是16家、10家、8家和7家。今年最大的两笔投资分别头投了链游 GunZ 和L2网络 boba,但参与的项目融资金额都没有超过1亿,甚至超过1000万美元的项目也不多,参与的1000万美元以下的融资项目占到了全年的近69%,所以从资金体量角度来说,Shima Capital 都无法与上述几个机构相提并论。

5、Pantera Capital

风险投资基金 PanteraCapital 由 Dan Morehad 在 2003 年在美国创立,2013年转型为加密货币投资机构并启动了美国首个专注于比特币的投资基金,此后又筹集了多个加密投资基金。截止写稿时,在整个2022年,PanteraCapital 四个季度分别投资的企业数量为16家、13家、8家和3家,以总数40排在了活跃度的第5位。

在投资赛道分布中,DeFi 和游戏占据主导地位,所参投的项目中融资超1亿的仅有一家——We3开发者平台Alchemy,其余的项目融资金额大多在1000万美元即以下,处于这个级别的项目数量占到了其全年投资数量的近70%。

值得关注的,相比上述机构,PanteraCapital 相对更偏向于早期的项目,而在一些蓝筹亿元级别的融资项目中少有它的影子,所以对于挖掘早期项目的人来说,多多关注这类投资机构或是不错的选择。

总结

除了上述5家投资机构之外,诸如 Jump Crypto、Multicoin Capital、Dragonfly 甚至于死亡前的 Alameda 都在熊市阶段保持一定的活跃度,而且从资本体量和投资金额方面比上文的Shima Capital 和 Pantera Capital都要大 ,但总体看,各机构的势能明显不如去年,除此此外:

整个加密投融资市场还在持续萎缩,无论是从融资金额、数量还是项目估值等方面都在缩水,目前依旧处于美联储加息的大通道下,2023年的投融资市场可能会更加惨淡。但同时,对于资金实力雄厚的资本来说,这也是一个“捡漏”的绝佳机会,特别是在熊市还保持活跃的机构值得我们重点关注。

目前主要活跃的加密投资机构主要以美国机构为主,上述五家最活跃的投资机构中,4家总部都在美国。

游戏和基础设施(公链/DeFi)依旧是不少投资机构所偏爱,虽然目前区块链游戏行业惨淡,但其依旧是一个可吸引外部用户增量的绝佳赛道,也是区块链技术推向大规模应用最让人接受的方式,未来很美好,但过程很曲折。

不同的机构有着自己的投资偏好和长处,我们可能根据自己的研究方面选择主要跟踪哪些投资机构的投资动态。

投资机构往往是锦上添花的角色,不用过于神化知名机构作用,而忽视基本的资产安全和项目基本面的研究。

Why Is the World Nervous About Japan Raising Interest Rates?

In June 2026, the Bank of Japan raised its policy rate to 1%, marking its first hike to this level since 1995. While this rate remains low compared to global peers like the US and Europe, the move signals a profound shift for a nation that has been a global source of ultra-cheap funding for decades. Japan's long-standing near-zero or negative interest rates had facilitated massive "yen carry trades," where international investors borrowed low-cost yen to invest in higher-yielding assets worldwide, such as US tech stocks and emerging market bonds. This made Japan a critical, often overlooked, source of global liquidity. Japan's ultra-loose policy stemmed from structural challenges post-1990s asset bubble: aging demographics, chronic low inflation/deflation, and high public debt. Recent shifts, including sustained wage growth (exceeding 5% in recent years) and inflation consistently above the 2% target, have created a "wage-price spiral" possibility, prompting the policy normalization. The global market's concern lies not in the absolute rate but in the potential unwinding of the yen carry trade. As Japanese borrowing costs rise, the economics of these leveraged global investments change, potentially triggering deleveraging and capital outflows from risk assets. Market anxiety focuses on the end of a thirty-year consensus that Japan would perpetually provide cheap funding. Ultimately, the global impact will depend on the interplay with US monetary policy. While Japan is tightening, the significant interest rate differential with the US remains. The key future dynamic is whether simultaneous Japanese hikes and eventual US rate cuts will narrow this gap, forcing a major recalibration of global capital flows and asset pricing built on an era of abundant, cheap yen liquidity.

What is $BITCOIN

DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): A Comprehensive Analysis Introduction to DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a blockchain-based project operating on the Solana network, which aims to combine the characteristics of traditional precious metals with the innovation of decentralized technologies. While it shares a name with Bitcoin, often referred to as “digital gold” due to its perception as a store of value, DIGITAL GOLD is a separate token designed to create a unique ecosystem within the Web3 landscape. Its goal is to position itself as a viable alternative digital asset, although specifics regarding its applications and functionalities are still developing. What is DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a cryptocurrency token explicitly designed for use on the Solana blockchain. In contrast to Bitcoin, which provides a widely recognized value storage role, this token appears to focus on broader applications and characteristics. Notable aspects include: Blockchain Infrastructure: The token is built on the Solana blockchain, known for its capacity to handle high-speed and low-cost transactions. Supply Dynamics: DIGITAL GOLD has a maximum supply capped at 100 quadrillion tokens (100P $BITCOIN), although details regarding its circulating supply are currently undisclosed. Utility: While precise functionalities are not explicitly outlined, there are indications that the token could be utilized for various applications, potentially involving decentralized applications (dApps) or asset tokenization strategies. Who is the Creator of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? At present, the identity of the creators and development team behind DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) remains unknown. This situation is typical among many innovative projects within the blockchain space, particularly those aligning with decentralized finance and meme coin phenomena. While such anonymity may foster a community-driven culture, it intensifies concerns about governance and accountability. Who are the Investors of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? The available information indicates that DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) does not have any known institutional backers or prominent venture capital investments. The project seems to operate on a peer-to-peer model focused on community support and adoption rather than traditional funding routes. Its activity and liquidity are primarily situated on decentralized exchanges (DEXs), such as PumpSwap, rather than established centralized trading platforms, further highlighting its grassroots approach. How DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) Works The operational mechanics of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) can be elaborated on based on its blockchain design and network attributes: Consensus Mechanism: By leveraging Solana’s unique proof-of-history (PoH) combined with a proof-of-stake (PoS) model, the project ensures efficient transaction validation contributing to the network's high performance. Tokenomics: While specific deflationary mechanisms have not been extensively detailed, the vast maximum token supply implies that it may cater to microtransactions or niche use cases that are still to be defined. Interoperability: There exists the potential for integration with Solana’s broader ecosystem, including various decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. However, the details regarding specific integrations remain unspecified. Timeline of Key Events Here is a timeline that highlights significant milestones concerning DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): 2023: The initial deployment of the token occurs on the Solana blockchain, marked by its contract address. 2024: DIGITAL GOLD gains visibility as it becomes available for trading on decentralized exchanges like PumpSwap, allowing users to trade it against SOL. 2025: The project witnesses sporadic trading activity and potential interest in community-led engagements, although no noteworthy partnerships or technical advancements have been documented as of yet. Critical Analysis Strengths Scalability: The underlying Solana infrastructure supports high transaction volumes, which could enhance the utility of $BITCOIN in various transaction scenarios. Accessibility: The potential low trading price per token could attract retail investors, facilitating wider participation due to fractional ownership opportunities. Risks Lack of Transparency: The absence of publicly known backers, developers, or an audit process may yield skepticism regarding the project's sustainability and trustworthiness. Market Volatility: The trading activity is heavily reliant on speculative behavior, which can result in significant price volatility and uncertainty for investors. Conclusion DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) emerges as an intriguing yet ambiguous project within the rapidly evolving Solana ecosystem. While it attempts to leverage the “digital gold” narrative, its departure from Bitcoin's established role as a store of value underscores the need for a clearer differentiation of its intended utility and governance structure. Future acceptance and adoption will likely depend on addressing the current opacity and defining its operational and economic strategies more explicitly. Note: This report encompasses synthesised information available as of October 2023, and developments may have transpired beyond the research period.
