Crypto Startups Secure Massive Funding Boosts in Recent Month
In the past month, cryptocurrency startups have experienced a substantial surge in funding, amassing nearly $800 million through venture capital investments. A significant portion of this, $583 million, was directed towards startups focused on developing crypto-related infrastructure, which has fueled the growth of utility-based presale tokens such as Flockerz ($FLOCK).
Impressive Financial Support for Crypto Ventures
According to data from DefiLlama, this recent funding round represents the fourth-largest financial backing for the year. However, it reflects an 8% decline compared to the figures from October.

The Impact of Trump’s Election on Crypto Investments
Investor confidence within the cryptocurrency sector was evident both before and after Donald Trump, often referred to as the ‘crypto president,’ was announced as the US president-elect. This outcome propelled Bitcoin to achieve a series of all-time highs, surpassing the eagerly anticipated $100,000 milestone. As is typical, when Bitcoin experiences an upward trajectory, numerous other crypto projects tend to follow suit. This time, projects with tangible use cases are attracting the most significant attention.
DeFi Companies and Web3 Gaming Projects Benefit from Investments
A large portion of last month’s funding was allocated to blockchain-based projects, primarily within the decentralized finance (DeFi) and Web3 gaming sectors. DeFi companies, in particular, received an additional $128.2 million in capital, marking a 31% increase from the previous month. USDX Money, a stablecoin issuer pegged to the US dollar, secured $45 million, representing the most substantial funding in this sector, with backing from prominent venture capital firms like BAI Capital and NGC Ventures. Meanwhile, in the blockchain gaming realm, Monkey Tilt emerged as a frontrunner, acquiring $30 million from Pantera Capital to enhance its online crypto-gambling platform. Zero Gravity Labs also stood out as a significant recipient, securing $40 million to advance its decentralized AI operations system.
$FLOCK Achieves Significant Success in Presale
Amidst the excitement, crypto token sales are demonstrating their profitability. The $FLOCK token, integral to the unique vote-to-earn platform Flockerz, has successfully raised over $5.8 million during its presale phase. Key areas where $FLOCK holders can exercise their voting rights include:
- Innovative features
- Marketing strategies
- Project development
- Token burns
- Expansion plans
Additionally, $WLFI secured $30 million from Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, bringing its total fundraising to over $20 billion. Similar to Flockerz, $WLFI provides governance rights within Donald Trump’s DeFi platform, World Liberty Financial.
Bright Prospects for Utility-Based Crypto Ventures in 2025
As 2024 approaches its end, crypto projects with genuine utility are emerging as leaders, attracting impressive financial inflows nearing $800 million to strengthen their infrastructures. Among these investments, there is a growing focus on governance tokens like $WLFI and $FLOCK. This trend underscores investors’ desire for decision-making power, rewards, and active community involvement. As developers and investors concentrate on innovative utility and community-driven initiatives, 2025 appears promising for those offering sustainable and scalable solutions, rather than relying solely on speculative hype for success.
