Golden Finance reports that, according to PitchBook analyst Robert Le's forecast, venture capital in the cryptocurrency industry could exceed $18 billion by 2025, with multiple quarters seeing investments reaching $5 billion. The total amount of cryptocurrency venture capital in 2023 is approximately $9 billion, expected to reach $11 billion in 2024, with average quarterly investments around $2 billion to $2.5 billion. Although investment activity slowed this summer, it has rebounded after the elections, and general venture capital firms are expected to refocus on the cryptocurrency sector next year. Le also pointed out that the investment theme of 'cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence (AI)' will continue to heat up, as cryptocurrency technology may provide innovative solutions to certain core issues during the expansion of AI, or become a new growth point.
