Famous CEO Makes Unexpected Statements: 'The Era of Easy Profits in Cryptocurrencies is Over' — He Published a Bitcoin Price Forecast

Following a period of heavy investment in 2020-2021, the cryptocurrency sector is reportedly seeing an accelerated shakeout of projects. Ryan Kirkly, CEO of Global Settlement Network (GSN), states that projects with high valuations but unsustainable revenue models are now leaving the market. Since early 2026, over 100 crypto and blockchain projects have ceased operations or gone bankrupt, a trend largely attributed to the earlier investment frenzy. While venture capital investment in Q1 2026 saw $4 billion across 355 deals, the total sum has halved from Q4 2025, primarily due to fewer mega-rounds. Kirkly believes the ongoing market cleansing will strengthen sectors like stablecoins, digital banking, institutional wallets, and payment infrastructure, while social tokens, memecoins, and some Web3 gaming startups may face greater pressure. He notes sustained corporate and government interest is shifting towards use cases like cost reduction, asset tokenization, and cross-border payments. Regarding Bitcoin, Kirkly describes the outlook as a "moderate bear market," identifying $61,200 as a critical support level. A break below this could trigger leveraged fund liquidations and potentially push prices toward $41,000.

Metaplanet CEO shuts down Bitcoin sale speculation after $322M transfer

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich has clarified that a recent transfer of 5,014 BTC (worth $322 million) was a routine custody operation and not a sale. The company's holdings remain at 43,000 BTC, cementing its position as the third-largest publicly traded Bitcoin treasury firm and the largest in Asia. Despite sitting on an unrealized loss of approximately $1.4 billion, Metaplanet continues to expand its Bitcoin strategy. It has established a ventures arm with a $25 million pledge to invest in Japan's crypto infrastructure and aims to hold 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026 and 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.

Venice AI Raises $65 Million at a $1 Billion Valuation, Founder Declares "No Token Sales", Is $VVV Set for a New Catalyst?

Privacy AI platform Venice AI raised $65 million in a Series A funding round at a $1 billion valuation, led by Dragonfly with participation from Coinbase Ventures and others. This marks the company's first external funding since its launch two years ago. Founder Erik Voorhees emphasized that the team has not sold any VVV tokens. The deal involves selling 8.98% equity, granting investors rights to 1.5 million VVV tokens, and warrants to purchase an additional 5 million VVV over eight years at a set price. If fully exercised, this could bring total funding to roughly $131.5 million. Voorhees estimates that post a one-year lockup, warrant exercises could introduce around 6,000 VVV tokens daily, approximately 0.2% of current daily trading volume. Venice AI, which claims over 3 million users, reported profitability in Q1 2026 with an annualized revenue run-rate exceeding $70 million. The platform positions itself as a private, uncensorable alternative to ChatGPT, offering access to over 200 AI models. The capital will be used to build proprietary computing infrastructure, including its first data center, to reduce reliance on leased GPUs. The company states it will continue using a portion of revenue to buy back and burn VVV tokens while gradually reducing token issuance.

A Robotic Version of MicroStrategy Has Arrived! Can Ordinary People Invest in Giants in the Robotics Sector?

Andrew Kang, a prominent former crypto investor, has shifted his focus to AI and robotics, taking on the role of CEO at RoboStrategy. This publicly traded closed-end fund, inspired by MicroStrategy's capital model, aims to give retail investors access to early-stage robotics investments, a sector traditionally dominated by institutional capital. RoboStrategy recently listed on NASDAQ under the ticker "BOT" and secured a $2 billion equity financing commitment. Kang, co-founder of Mechanism Capital, began investing in robotics two years ago, with a notable early investment in Figure AI. RoboStrategy's portfolio now includes several robotics companies across hardware and software. The fund differentiates itself through permanent capital, a team of industry experts, and strong marketing capabilities. Its core strategy, termed R.I.S.E., involves raising capital when its share price trades at a premium to Net Asset Value (NAV), investing in high-conviction private robotics companies, scaling those investments, and using the resulting NAV growth to attract further capital—creating a potential flywheel effect. However, risks include its current high share price premium over NAV, the subjective valuation and illiquidity of its private holdings, and the inherent volatility of a closed-end fund structure.

Silicon Valley Godfather Naval Takes the Helm, AngelList Packs Pre-IPO Growth Companies into USVC Fund

This article discusses the USVC Venture Capital Access Fund (USVC), a new investment vehicle co-founded by prominent Silicon Valley investor Naval Ravikant through AngelList. The fund's core mission is to provide retail investors access to high-growth, pre-IPO companies—a segment of the market traditionally reserved for venture capitalists and accredited investors. USVC invests in a portfolio of late-stage private companies, including notable names like xAI, Anthropic, and OpenAI. Its key selling point is allowing ordinary investors to gain exposure to the significant value creation that occurs before a company goes public, as the average age of companies at IPO has increased from 6 years in 1980 to 13 years today. However, the article highlights several important constraints: investors buy fund shares, not direct stock; the fund carries a net annual fee of 2.5%; it offers limited liquidity through quarterly share repurchases; and investments are long-term with no fixed end date. The fund has also garnered attention in the Web3 community due to Naval’s and AngelList’s history of supporting crypto and blockchain projects, positioning USVC at the intersection of traditional venture capital and emerging digital asset investment trends.

Lattice Capital Founder: Crypto VC, Believing is Seeing

In the face of a significant contraction in crypto VC funding, industry observers debate whether this signals a decline in crypto's appeal or a sign of market maturation. While some investors are leaving crypto entirely or diversifying into other high-growth sectors like AI, Lattice Capital co-founder Regan Bozman argues for staying the course. He expresses skepticism about crypto funds successfully pivoting to AI or deep tech, citing intense competition and lack of inherent advantage. Bozman believes the current crypto downturn, with fewer founders and less capital, actually presents a prime investment opportunity for those who are truly committed. He contends that the crypto financial infrastructure is only 5% built, with massive growth potential remaining in areas like non-USD stablecoins and crypto-based financial applications in global markets. The key is to focus on early-stage, specialized opportunities that larger funds may overlook.

Franklin Templeton Acquires CoinFund Affiliate, Accelerating Traditional Finance's Rush for Crypto Assets

Franklin Templeton, a global investment giant with over $1.5 trillion in assets under management, has established a new independent cryptocurrency division called Franklin Crypto. This move coincides with the acquisition of 250 Digital, a crypto investment management firm spun out from CoinFund. Although the acquisition amount was not disclosed, the deal is expected to close in Q2 of this year. The announcement is part of a broader trend of traditional financial institutions accelerating their entry into the crypto space. Recent examples include Mastercard's $1.8 billion acquisition of stablecoin infrastructure startup BVNK and Stripe's acquisition of the stablecoin project Bridge. Industry experts predict that crypto-related mergers and acquisitions will exceed $37 billion by 2026. Franklin Templeton’s new division will expand its existing crypto and blockchain venture operations and broaden its digital asset investment platform. The firm’s global head of digital assets currently manages around $1.8 billion. Company executives noted growing institutional and younger investor interest in crypto, signaling a convergence of traditional and digital asset investing.

XRP Builder Funding Shifts In 2026 As Ripple Backs New Model

Ripple is shifting its funding model for the XRP Ledger (XRPL) ecosystem in 2026, moving from a centralized structure to a more distributed network involving DAOs, independent hubs, universities, and venture partners. Over $550 million has been deployed since 2017 to support nearly 200 projects. The new approach includes the FinTech Builder Program for institutional-grade financial applications, expanded accelerator partnerships, and community-led initiatives like XAO DAO. Regional expansion includes a dedicated APAC hub and university collaborations. The goal is to provide builders with diverse funding channels and reduce reliance on Ripple as the sole gatekeeper.

Pump.fun Pushes Past Memecoins, Launches Investment Arm To Back New Projects

Pump.fun, known as a memecoin launchpad, has expanded its operations by launching an investment division named Pump Fund. It has initiated a public hackathon with a $3 million fund to support new projects. Twelve winning teams will each receive $250,000 at a $10 million valuation, along with mentorship from the founders. The selection process will be market-driven, relying on real token demand and community traction rather than traditional venture capital methods. Projects are required to build publicly, issue tokens, and demonstrate user interest. This move marks a strategic shift for Pump.fun from memecoins toward backing broader startup ideas using token-based mechanics. However, the platform's history of security issues and legal concerns related to memecoin launches adds controversy to this new initiative. Critics caution that the model may prioritize short-term hype over sustainable development and raise questions about transparency and long-term viability. Applications are currently open for the hackathon.

Co-founder Alon Cohen stated that demand for strong founders remains high regardless of market conditions. Meanwhile, PUMP’s price saw a slight increase, though trading volume has declined, indicating cautious optimism about the platform’s strategic shift toward startup support.
