Data: Crypto market financing activity slows down in January, with 125 publicly disclosed projects raising a total of $1.5 billion

According to data disclosed by Cheeky Rolo, financing activities in the cryptocurrency market significantly slowed down in January 2025, with 125 publicly disclosed projects raising a total of $1.5 billion and 205 transactions completed. Among them, the public token issuance of World Liberty Financial accounted for one-fifth of the total financing amount in January, becoming one of the most closely watched financing events of the month. Against the backdrop of an overall sluggish market, the $150 million Series C financing completed by the cryptocurrency wallet Phantom has become a highlight, with a valuation of $3 billion. This round of financing was participated by top institutions such as Sequoia Capital, Paradigm, and A16z Crypto. Analysis suggests that in an environment of increasingly strict regulation and frequent risk events on centralized exchanges, non custodial wallet solutions are gaining more favor from investors.
