VC money doesn’t care about red candles.

VC money doesn’t care about red candles.
In October, 83 crypto projects raised $3.9B — second only to Nov 2021’s record.
Even after the brutal “Black Saturday” crash on Oct 11 — $19B in liquidations! 💥 — venture investors didn’t flinch. According to DeFi Llama, it was just a short-term shakeout, not a real shift in fundamentals.
Big chunks of that money came from heavy hitters: $2B for Polymarket, $300M for rival Kalshi, and $500M for Tempo — the new blockchain project backed by Stripe and Paradigm. Serious stuff.
It’s crazy how, despite the charts bleeding, capital keeps flowing into crypto’s veins. Feels like the smart money’s quietly building while everyone else screams “bear market.” C’est la vie in crypto — patience always pays. 🏖
