The crypto market has witnessed a noteworthy rise in fundraising in November 2025. Throughout November, the industry has recorded a historical high fundraising of $2.38 billion. As per the data from CryptoRank, a well-known crypto data and analytics provider, the landmark crypto deals have fueled this fundraising surge. Moreover, the month also beheld significant institutional confidence in Web3-based prediction and infrastructure markets.

Crypto Fundraising Claims Historic Monthly High, Dunamu, Ripple, and Kalshi Take Lead

Based on the on-chain data, throughout November, the crypto fundraising secured a notable $2.38 billion. This figure shows a considerable surge above the previous bull cycle peaks. Specifically, Naver Finance’s buyout of Dunamu, accounting for $10.3B emerged as a top merger deal backing November’s crypto fundraising events.

Additionally, Kalshi, a prominent and regulated prediction market entity, obtained an overall $1B in investment at a valuation of $11B. Along with that, it also got support from well-known firms such as Paradigm, Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), and Sequoia Capital. Following that, Ripple secured the next position with a strategic funding round of up to $500M at a valuation of $40B. It reportedly acquired capital from Galaxy Digital, Pantera Capital, and other popular institutional players.

The respective deals reflect rising investor appeal for mature cryptocurrency platforms, while also indicating a shift toward infrastructure scaling and strategic consolidation. At the same time, the legacy venture capital (VC) platforms and crypto funds’ participation underscores the shift toward the mainstream usage. In the same vein, the rising fundraising activity of November highlights the broader crypto inflows into projects with long-term utility and regulatory positioning. Moreover, the $2.38B in this monthly crypto fundraising has outcompeted November 2021’s $1.48B, May 2021’s $1.53B, and March 2021’s $1.63B.

Setting Unique Standard for New Era Amid Rising Institutional Backing

According to CryptoRank, November’s heightened crypto fundraising suggests the increased investment engagement with early-stage offerings and private rounds. Additionally, the stunning $2.38B mark is also setting a new standard, led by strategic investments and wide-scale acquisitions instead of speculative hype. Overall, this signals the market maturation, while the capital coming from institutions is reshaping the landscape of crypto fundraising.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
