In July 2024, Web3 related projects secured a total of 113 funding rounds, with the total amount raised exceeding $1.1 billion USD, almost equals to the monthly average of the first half of the year. However, compared to July of the previous year, both the funding amount and the number of rounds has significantly increased. In fact, since last November, the overall fundraising environment for the Web3.0 market has notably improved, maintaining a relatively stable state this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mining, AI, DeFi, and Payment are Noteworthy Track<\/strong><\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the categories, although the mining sector only had two rounds of funding, the amounts were far ahead, which includes 413 million USD for Iris Energy and 92.5 million USD for Block Mining, the two largest deals in July. The AI sector ranked second in total funding, with 12 related projects raising a total of 138 million USD, benefiting from the AI boom this year. Following closely were the payment and DeFi sectors (sectors with overlapping areas were categorized based on their main business). DeFi, which is crucial for the liquidity of Web3.0 assets, has always been a popular field. And payment, as the bridge connecting Web3.0 assets with real-world assets, has also consistently garnered attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
