Encryption Financing Weekly Report: Weekly Fundraising of 141 Million USD, Corporate Bitcoin Treasury Strategies Continue to Heat Up

According to DefiLlama aggregated data, this week seven encryption projects successfully raised funds, totaling over $141 million.

Annual financing exceeds $11 billion, nearly $600 million in July alone

This wave of financing will push the total funding amount for encryption startups in 2025 to nearly $11 billion—over $1 billion higher than the total for the entire year of 2024. Since July alone, industry participants have raised $583 million.

Trend Forecast: May Far Exceed the Expected 18 Billion If this momentum continues, the entire industry is expected to significantly exceed PitchBook's financing forecast of $18 billion for 2025.
