Pre-Seed Funded Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Startups
The 50 most recent pre-seed rounds in blockchain and cryptocurrency run from December 2023 through June 2025.
The 50 most recent pre-seed rounds in blockchain and cryptocurrency run from December 2023 through June 2025. Among the 37 rounds with disclosed amounts, $3M is the modal figure — it appears 11 times, in companies spanning Hyve Labs (Austin) and Byzantine Finance (Paris) to Pell Network (Singapore) and Axal (Boston). The dataset skews toward US-based founders: San Francisco alone accounts for five companies, including NeuronX, Human, Ark Labs, Crestal, and Safary. London matches that count with Tranched, mbd, Sophon, Chateau, and Clave. Dubai, Singapore, and Riyadh each appear twice, and Roxom Global's $18M raise in Buenos Aires (May 2025) stands as the largest disclosed round, well above the typical range. Thirteen of the 50 rows carry undisclosed amounts, consistent with standard pre-seed disclosure behavior in this sector.
