IPOs, Venture Rounds and On-Chain Credit

For feedback or concerns regarding this content, please contact us at crypto.news@mexc.com

Venture capital and institutional money are flowing back into digital asset companies at the start of 2026, with industry data showing $1.4 billion committed across venture rounds and public market listings.

The largest transactions included Visa-linked stablecoin issuer Rain, which reached a $1.9 billion valuation after raising $250 million, and crypto custodian BitGo’s $200 million-plus IPO on the New York Stock Exchange in January.

While crypto markets remain under pressure following October’s broad-based liquidation that wiped out billions in leveraged positions across centralized and decentralized markets, institutional engagement in the sector continues to build.

This edition of VC Roundup covers traditional venture raises, blockchain-focused funds and a notable onchain credit transaction that points to broader shifts in how capital is moving through the industry.

Everything closes $6.9 million funding round

Digital exchange platform Everything has raised $6.9 million in seed funding led by Humanity Investments, with participation from Animoca Brands, Hex Trust and Jamie Rogozinski, the founder of WallStreetBets.

The company is building a unified trading platform that combines perpetual futures, spot markets and prediction markets under a single account structure. The company plans a phased rollout, starting with a Telegram-based interface, to simplify retail access to derivatives trading while limiting bot-driven activity through human-verification tools.

Galaxy completes $75 million onchain credit deal on Avalanche

Galaxy has completed a $75 million onchain credit deal using the Avalanche blockchain, including a $50 million anchor allocation from an institutional investor. The deal packages private loans into digital securities that are issued and managed onchain, rather than through traditional back-office systems.

While not a venture funding round, the transaction is notable because Galaxy operates an active venture business and invests heavily in crypto startups. The deal points to growing institutional comfort with running core financial activity onchain, a shift that could influence where venture capital flows next.

Prometheum boosts funding tied to onchain securities push

Prometheum, a US-regulated digital asset market infrastructure provider, said it has raised an additional $23 million since the start of 2025 from high-net-worth investors and institutions. The company operates an SEC-registered, FINRA-member broker-dealer that offers custody, clearing and settlement services for digital assets, including tokenized securities.

The capital will support the rollout of clearing services for US broker-dealers and the development of onchain securities products, as Prometheum works to integrate digital assets into traditional brokerage infrastructure.

I am in everything and surround every place. What am I?” The answer: The letter “E”. It’s the beginning of End and the end of timE and spacE. It’s in evErything and surrounds Every placE.
