Golden Finance reported that TIE terminal data showed that 33 DeFi companies announced financing last month. Cryptocurrency companies raised $823 million in September alone, with funds distributed among 200 different companies that raised funds last month. Celestia's ecosystem financing of $100 million topped the list, followed by Infinex, which raised $65 million through public token sales. Strategic financing like Celestia ranked at the top of last month's financing amount, partly because the TON Foundation raised funds for its ecosystem fund. But according to TIE data, seed round financing topped the list. 41 companies raised seed rounds last month.
