🚀 Bitcoin Funding Skyrockets: 767% Growth Spree! 🤑

by

In a universe not so far away, a company named Trammell Venture Partners emerged from the Texas wilderness with a peculiar obsession: Bitcoin startups.

On a perfectly ordinary Thursday, TVP, a firm that dabbles in the art of early-stage Bitcoin investments, dropped a truth bombshell in the form of a report. It turns out, in the grand tapestry of time spanning just four years, Bitcoin startups have seen a 767% surge in funding. That’s like jumping from a paper plane to a spaceship!

What’s a “Bitcoin-native” startup, you ask? Imagine a company that’s as convinced of Bitcoin’s future as a cat is of its own invincibility. TVP’s portfolio is full of such companies, like Voltage, which is all about the Lightning Network (fancy term for super-fast Bitcoin transfers), and Fedi, a Bitcoin superapp that’s like the Swiss Army knife of digital money.

By the end of 2024, these Bitcoin-native startups had more pre-seed cash than a pirate’s treasure chest, totaling around $1.2 billion. That’s a lot of digital gold!

“Crypto entrepreneurs are flocking back to Bitcoin like it’s the next big thing,” quipped Christopher Calicott, the managing director at TVP. “Because, well, it is. Bitcoin is the Fort Knox of blockchains – secure, reliable, and not about to pull a disappearing act,” he added with a knowing wink.

But wait, there’s more! Bitcoin, despite being the big fish in the crypto pond, only gets a tiny sliver of the venture capital pie – a mere 2.34%. Is this a case of the pie being too small or Bitcoin being too picky? Calicott seems to think it’s the former, because optimists see the glass half full, even if it’s a shot glass.

“As these early-stage companies start to walk, then run, and eventually fly, expect the Bitcoin stack to become the goose that lays the golden eggs,” Calicott prophesied.
