November Crypto Venture Funding Hits Record $14.48 Billion, Raising Centralization Concerns
In November 2025, venture capital investment in the cryptocurrency industry reached a record high of $14.48 billion, doubling from two months earlier and 70% higher than the July peak, indicating a significant increase in institutional confidence. However, behind this massive inflow of capital, concerns have arisen about the decentralization principles of the crypto market.
According to CryptoRank data, this capital will drive the development of sectors such as DeFi, NFT, and Web3, but Ray Youssef points out that large institutional investors may dominate the market landscape, determining which projects succeed and which are marginalized. This trend could lead to a redistribution of capital, allowing the interests of a few large investors to override those of early organic ecosystems, raising questions about the status of retail investors and market fairness.
