Disclosed deal sizes in Brooklyn financial services are tightly clustered at the mid-to-low tens of millions, except for one clear outlier: Ava Labs’ $230M Initial Coin Offering on 2021-09-16, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds (Walnut’s $100M debt financing on 2022-05-05; BlockApps’ $41M Series B on 2022-04-19). At the low end, the smallest disclosed amount is Class Action Capital’s $100K venture round on 2021-12-21.
The 28 listed rounds also show two concentration patterns. First, most deals are Brooklyn, New York-based (with one notable geographic outlier: Victory Capital in Brooklyn, Ohio on 2024-07-09). Second, stage and timing skew: 19 of 28 rows carry “Series Unknown” (including multiple 2021–2022 crypto/fintech-style entries), while undisclosed amounts appear in 3 of 28 rows (Victory Capital 2024-07-09; Tongo 2023-04-11; Stobox 2022-09-10). Temporally, the window runs from 2021-02-12 (OppZo) to 2025-08-12 (Dealops), and the most recent cluster is concentrated in 2024–2025, where multiple rounds of $4M–$10M appear (e.g., Dealops $7M on 2025-08-12; Premins Company $10M on 2025-05-12; Upsolve $4M on 2024-09-04).

Frequently asked
What stands out on disclosed round size, and how does the leader compare to the rest of the list?
Ava Labs’ $230M Initial Coin Offering on 2021-09-16 is an outlier: the next-largest disclosed amounts are Walnut’s $100M on 2022-05-05 and BlockApps’ $41M on 2022-04-19, with most other disclosed rounds landing well below that range (for example, $10M or $7M rounds like Premins Company on 2025-05-12 and Dealops on 2025-08-12).
Are there notable low-end or missing-disclosure patterns in this Brooklyn financial services set?
The smallest disclosed amount is Class Action Capital’s $100K on 2021-12-21, while undisclosed amounts show up 3 times: Victory Capital (2024-07-09), Tongo (2023-04-11), and Stobox (2022-09-10).
Where does the deal activity cluster by time, especially near the top of the list?
Rounds span 2021-02-12 (OppZo) to 2025-08-12 (Dealops), and multiple mid-sized disclosed deals appear in 2024–2025: Dealops $7M (2025-08-12), Premins Company $10M (2025-05-12), Upsolve $4M (2024-09-04), and Propel $4M (2024-08-28), suggesting recent rounds are concentrated rather than evenly distributed across the full period.
Does stage labeling lean heavily toward “Series Unknown” or specific named stages?
“Series Unknown” appears in 19 of 28 rows, including a run of crypto/fintech entries such as Cryptocurrencies.Ai (2021-05-20, $8M) and Pico (2021-04-14, $7M). Named stages exist (e.g., Ava Labs as ICO on 2021-09-16; BlockApps as Series B on 2022-04-19; Carry as Series A on 2024-07-17), but they represent fewer rows than the unknown label.
Is the geography consistently Brooklyn, or are there out-of-area entries that change how to interpret this list?
Most entries are Brooklyn, New York-based, but Victory Capital is listed in Brooklyn, Ohio (2024-07-09). That single different state is a geographic outlier compared with the rest of the Brooklyn, New York pattern.
