Infinity Ventures Crypto Raises $70 Million Funding Seed to Empower web3 and DeFi Firms

Infinity Ventures Crypto, a Taipei-based Web 3 investor, announced on Tuesday that it has raised $70 million from investment firms, including Circle, Digital Currency Group (DCG) and Animoca Brands.

Infinity Ventures disclosed that it plans to use the fresh funding to deploy startups in North American, South American and Asian markets in its first fund deal. Additionally, the crypto firm elaborated that it intends to use the funds to develop and accelerate the growth of decentralized finance (DeFi), global GameFi and Web3 innovations with the aim of bridging the gap between the markets in the West and East, especially in Southeast Asia.

Brian Lu, a partner at Infinity Ventures Crypto, said: “As a bridge between the East and West, we take a boots-on-the-ground approach by assembling teams of local experts to stoke the growth of our portfolio companies. We’re proud to be off to a fast start and are excited to share our expertise with more innovators.”

Lu mentioned that the funding is oversubscribed, but the company does not want it to grow too big because Web 3 firms look for smaller rounds. He highlighted that Web 3 companies normally look to raise only $1 million or less, and the average size of the funds could be in the range of $250,000.
