Pantera Capital general partner Lauren Stephanian stated that due to investors being more willing to deploy funds in governments that support cryptocurrency in the United States, cryptocurrency venture capital is expected to increase in 2025. Although 'the bull market cannot last forever', it remains to be seen 'when we will start to see a slowdown in deployment next year'. Pantera continues to invest broadly in the crypto and blockchain space, but is especially interested in cryptocurrency AI, DePIN, and new Layer 1 blockchains that support more application-level features.
