The cryptocurrency industry is in its infancy, and there is room for growth. Many VC firms are aware that the future is with crypto, and they do not want to lose what may be the biggest investment opportunity of our time.
This document discusses regulators' concerns about initial coin offerings (ICOs) and potential regulatory responses. It notes that ICOs have raised $1.78 billion between 2014-2017 for blockchain initiatives, with 83% raised in 2017 alone. Regulators worry that without proper oversight, ICOs could enable fraud and risky investing behavior. However, banning ICOs may not be the best solution. Potential regulatory responses include requiring funds to be held in escrow until milestones are met, enabling trading of tokens for liquidity, and increasing transparency of those conducting ICOs. Overall, regulators must find a disruptive solution to address the disruptive nature of ICO fundraising.
The document discusses crowdfunding and equity crowdfunding (ECF) in Malaysia. It provides details on:
- How ECF works and the different types of investors that can participate
- The licensing of six ECF platforms in Malaysia and an example of one called CrowdPlus
- The process ECF platforms use to vet projects, conduct due diligence, and list projects for investment
- Potential benefits for startups using ECF, like access to international investors and mentorship
- Misconceptions about ECF and how it can complement traditional financing options

The world of cryptocurrency brims with exciting and innovative opportunities, and one of the most popular among them is the Initial Coin Offering (ICO).
DAO Maker is building the go-to platform for retail venture investing in equity and tokens.
Providing low-risk participation frameworks is essential to reach global retail in venture capital, as most retail investors cannot afford to risk large portions of their money. By providing an opportunity to everyday people to safely grow their own capital, we aim to improve the quality of millions of lives while simultaneously enabling a new funding source to innovation worldwide.
Over the past 2 years, DAO Maker has grown one of the largest ecosystems of quality retail investors; in just 2020, our platform has signed on more than 75,000 retail users interested in early-stage ventures. At the same time, we have been building a suite of services to attract high-quality startups to join the ecosystem and be accelerated in a decentralized, safe, and autonomous environment. Some of the industry’s most notable developments currently use the technology solutions provided within our startup growth toolkit. To date, the demand for the products has well exceeded our ability to manage onboarding flow, which is why we are currently working on permissionless, self-managed versions of our technology products.
DAO Maker’s track record has defied market cycles. We have worked with projects to design solutions to raise capital in bear markets, supported enterprise blockchains to generate new product portfolios for growth, and created technology solutions that expand community empowerment in tokenized developments. Our consulting and technology services’ revenue has been funneled to our primary goal: creating a globally compliant fundraising platform for both crowd equity and tokens.
Our approach to a fundraising platform is distinct from other platforms that target venture funding. We don’t just connect retail venture funds to startups in need of capital.
Instead, we create a platform that incorporates pluggable solutions to the problems early-stage ventures face after fundraising, alongside creating venture investment structures that make participation far safer for retail.
DAO Maker is on track to change the way personal finance works by breaking its boundaries. While retail or household portfolios have made record participation into the equity market, encouraged by a global desire for individuals to seek financial independence by putting their money to work, retail involvement in venture funding is bleak.
Retail makes up less than 1% of the annual $300B venture capital market, even though early-stage investments are the leading wealth generator, as growth prospects are becoming increasingly limited by the time new companies listed on the market.
This document discusses whether cryptocurrency can serve as a store of value during the current economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It begins by noting that cryptocurrency believers have argued it can serve as a safe haven, but questions whether cryptocurrencies actually reassured investors during this crisis. The document then provides an overview of the following chapters which will evaluate cryptocurrencies' qualifications as a store of value by examining their market size, investors, potential for market manipulation, regulation, and price stability. The goal is to determine if cryptocurrency can fulfill the role of a reliable store of value or if its value is too volatile, like the Dutch tulip bulb market crash in the 1600s.

The document discusses practical applications of blockchain technology that investors may wish to invest in instead of cryptocurrencies. It provides examples of companies using blockchain for healthcare, protecting artist royalties, and decentralized finance applications. These types of companies are more likely to generate consistent profits than speculative cryptocurrency investments. Investing early in startups with unique blockchain applications could result in large gains if they are acquired by larger companies.

Outlier Ventures Investment in Blockchains report by Research Analyst Joel John and Partner & Head of Research Lawrence Lundy.
The report provides an overview into blockchain investment and market trends in 2019. According to the report, $23.7 Billion has been raised by 3738 blockchain companies since 2013.
Early stage fundraising high in count, but follow on rounds few and scarce. Blockchain startups have raised finance in multiple forms including ICOs, debt, direct investments and crowd-funding. However, discounting a handful of exchanges and wallets, there hasn’t been an application that has broken through to mainstream adoption, yet. This definitely isn’t for lack of capital. The challenge is more about expertise and guidance at early stages, especially when it comes to areas unique to Web3 such as token design.
Venture Capital and Crypto: The Equity SideRaffaele Mauro
This document summarizes venture capital funding trends in blockchain and cryptocurrency startups from 2015-2018. It notes that 2018 VC investments have already exceeded the total for 2017, reaching $1.6 billion across 296 deals. ICO funding in 2018 totals an estimated $5-8 billion. The largest VC deals of 2017 and 2018 are provided as examples. Reasons for and against investing in crypto startups are outlined. Finally, the document discusses evaluating ICO opportunities and potential future scenarios for cryptocurrency and decentralized technology.

An Introduction to the World of Venture CapitalScott Tominaga
When startups need funding, venture capital is one option they might consider. Getting funding from a VC firm can offer certain advantages to new businesses that may not be able to get approved for traditional loans. Thanks to the rise of crowdfunding, it’s now becoming decidedly more mainstream.
For any startup, raising money is a complex issue. While startups can raise money from a number of sources, the main one is venture capital and today we are going to learn about the way Venture Capital works.
Crowdfunding has become a popular way for startups to raise money, with over £200M raised in the UK in 2012. The roundtable discussion analyzed the current state and future of crowdfunding. Attendees predicted crowdfunding will continue growing and possibly raise £15BN annually in the future. Crowdfunding offers businesses greater independence than venture capital and helps startups boost their visibility and profile. While still early, crowdfunding is seen as democratizing investment by allowing more individuals to invest smaller amounts and spread risk. The "wisdom of the crowd" provides public scrutiny that can strengthen businesses.
The document discusses the rise of financial technology (FinTech) and its disruption of traditional financial services. FinTech is using technology to meet customer demands and create new business models, challenging incumbents. Three key areas being disrupted are (1) payments through services like PayPal, (2) alternative lending platforms that compete with banks, and (3) crowdfunding and crowd-investing that could challenge investment banks. The FinTech sector is growing rapidly through new startups and investment. While Silicon Valley and New York have been leaders, Europe, Asia and other regions are gaining competitive FinTech hubs and startups of their own.
8 Steps for launching an Initial Offering.pdfchainsense
Over the past 10 years, the use of cryptocurrencies and virtual currencies has significantly expanded. Crowdfunding using any of the various initial offerings is a neat way to move past the bootstrap phase onto the next.
Such crowdfunding methods continue to evolve over a course of the past decade and are very important in addressing the shortcomings of traditional fundraising platforms. One of the most popular ways for new web3 enterprises competing for the interest of foreign investors to raise money is through an Initial Offering (IO). This page clarifies how IO development works.

Flipkart is an Indian e-commerce company founded in 2007. It started as an online book retailer and has since expanded to sell a wide range of products.

The company raised over $3 billion from prominent investors, demonstrating strong growth and potential in the Indian e-commerce market.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Industrial Tech SW: Category Renewal and CreationChristian Dahlen
Every industrial revolution has created a new set of categories and a new set of players.
Multiple new technologies have emerged, but Samsara and C3.ai are only two companies which have gone public so far.
Manufacturing startups constitute the largest pipeline share of unicorns and IPO candidates in the SF Bay Area, and software startups dominate in Germany.
2. Crypto industry
is maturing.
According to one of the reports, venture capitalists
have invested more than $27 billion in crypto start-
ups by the end of November 2021.
The crypto industry is maturing at a rapid pace.
Many venture capitalists have been invested in
venture capital by crypto companies, whose
continued growth will depend on the expansion of
the ecosystem. In the third quarter of 2021,
Coinbase Ventures traded more than any other
venture capital firm, which tracks venture capital
and start-ups.
4. VC Funds
The venture capital fund consists of a pool of investors who want to make a
lot of money quickly. Fund managers send out a prospectus inviting
potential investors to participate. A prospectus is an investment fund that
sells them to an investment fund.
VC funds do not limit their interest in Crypto. Unicorn - rare companies worth
at least $ 1 billion, as determined by VC. Business models are accepting
“picks and shovels” as many VCs recognize the emerging opportunities. Peak
and Shovel companies are crypto-related businesses that provide derivative
services to the same consumer base. Such businesses include Crypto Tax
Reporting Startups, Cryptocurrency Charting Software, and more.
5. Venture capital funds are usually divided
into five phases, However, the funding
round in the previous round is not being
met, or more stages can be added after
the founders want to make more money.
VC fund managers spend enough time
reviewing thousands of projects to
determine growth prospects. Even though
they are clever investors, venture
capitalists prefer to expand their bat.
Thus, they do not risk keeping all their
money in one basket. Start-ups usually
take the VC funding route when they are
not ready to go public. Fictionally, they
may not be able to raise funds from retail
investors. For the past reason, Crypto
projects, VC has not made a financial
discovery, but it is changing fast.
7. The cryptocurrency industry is in its
infancy, and there is room for growth.
Many VC firms are aware that the future is
with crypto, and they do not want to lose
what may be the biggest investment
opportunity of our time. Even so, owning
one is still beyond the reach of the
average person. In the crypto space,
venture capital is no different from
financially viable VC funds, with one
exception. Cryptocurrency startups,
which benefit from financial gain, operate
in the market.
8. Although considered a traditional financial approach, VC funds are increasingly looking
for crypto because of the mainstream adoption. It is responsible for major ad platforms
such as Facebook and Google to lift their ban on crypto ads. Moreover, with the
mainstream adoption by institutional investors, VC sees the crypto industry as a less risky
investment.
However, it can be considered a double-edged sword. Finally, more investment has
encouraged thousands of new projects to hit the market So, while there may be only a
handful of targeted scams, most are high-risk investments. But that doesn’t stop many
VC funds, which are more aware that big rewards come with higher risks. And in fact,
crypto start-ups can make a difference in any industry. Mathematical risk management
and risk management is a complex set of VC fund managers.
10. With VC funding in general, the advantages and disadvantages
for cryptocurrency space are the same. VC farms after high
returns, which translates into equity with a possible quick exit.
This means that there may be pressure to distribute quickly,
and there may be a risk of losing control. One of the main
benefits of being a venture capital fund is that it provides
crypto startups with a great deal of money. This big money has

more careful work, such as reviewing

successful Of course, their main goal is to
make money, but if a company has to be

investors are hesitant to expect it. The
mainstream media has negative stories
about scammers and towels. When
project owners put their tokens on the
market and disappear with investor
funds. For this reason, providing an STO
to new retail investors could be a solid
funding approach.

one major difference: they are supported by an
exchange. When a project team comes to exchange and
makes a deal behind closed doors.
Exchange exchanges generally support and list projects
in exchange for a list fee and a percentage of tokens.
Actual contracts will vary on a case-by-case basis If
more than one VC applies for crypto startups, the team
can consider an IEO without using VC funding.
Established cryptocurrency exchanges can also provide
a significant boost to a project.
Moreover, VC funds have long been at risk of investing in
math, so they understand how games are played. The
experience they have been able to share can be
invaluable investment advice for many crypto
companies.
