Switzerland's Crypto Valley raised $728 million through 31 transactions in 2025, a year-on-year increase of 37%
The CV VC annual report shows that the Swiss Crypto Valley raised $728 million through 31 transactions, a year-on-year increase of 37%, accounting for 47% of the total European blockchain venture capital. The report states that global blockchain venture capital grew by 30% to $15.5 billion, with 986 transactions. One transaction played a key role, with The Open Network leading with $400 million in funding, followed by Sygnum Bank ($58 million), M0 ($40 million), Impossible Cloud Network ($34 million), and CratD2C ($30 million).
Blockchain networks attracted 62% of the funding, infrastructure accounted for 14%, and centralized financial services and DeFi applications each accounted for 10%. The Crypto Valley currently has 1,766 active blockchain companies, a growth of 134% since 2020. Despite the increase in funding, the valuation of the top 50 in the Crypto Valley has dropped to $467 billion, and the number of unicorns has decreased from 17 to 10, mainly due to the market weakness at the end of the year causing six token projects to see their valuations fall below the $1 billion threshold, and 21Shares leaving the ecosystem after being acquired by FalconX.
