Galaxy: crypto venture investment rose 31% in Q2 2026

  • Quarterly crypto VC investment totaled $5.68 billion, up 31% from the previous quarter
  • Deal count rose 10% to 384, with a record median check of $4.9 million
  • 78% of all funds went to late-stage rounds; exchanges and financial services received $3.52 billion
  • US-based companies accounted for 73.5% of investment value but only 39.1% of deals
Why it matters: Rising venture funding signals capital returning to the sector, though concentration in late-stage rounds points to investor caution.
