Deep Tide TechFlow news, on December 31, Pantera Capital general partner Lauren Stephanian stated in an interview with The Block that cryptocurrency venture capital funding is expected to increase in 2025, as investors are more willing to deploy capital under the U.S. supportive policies for cryptocurrency management. However, she pointed out that 'the bull market cannot last forever,' so 'when we will start to see a slowdown in deployments next year' remains to be observed.
Stephanian emphasized that Pantera will continue to invest broadly in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space, particularly showing strong interest in crypto AI, decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePINs), and new Layer 1 blockchains, which can enable richer application layer functionalities.
