๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ธ$60BLN DEFI MARKET: IMPACT ON VC BEHAVIOUR!

Even if you feel critical towards the crypto finance and tokenized startupsโ€™ space, you should keep an eye on whatโ€™s going on in this sector in 2021. And itโ€™s going crazy!

๐Ÿ“ˆThe Decentralized finance (known as DeFi) keeps hitting new highs in its most popular metrics: starting from an aggregate $600 million in assets in 2019, DeFi protocols have grown to nearly a million users, $40 billion in assets and nearly $60 billion in market capitalisation in 14 short months.

๐Ÿ‘‰Another, lesser-known milestone: back in September 2020 DeFi startups crossed half a billion dollars raised in venture capital funding.
Today there are more than 200 known VC funds investing in DeFi space, which ensures that the number of VC investments will grow significantly in 2021!

๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ“ˆAre YOU are prepared for a fundraising? What are those essentially important things all investors want to see?

๐Ÿ“†๐ŸŽ™In 2018-2021, InnMind organised hundreds of interviews with the top VCs and business angels from Europe, Silicon Valley, Israel, and Asia. During interviews we asked investors about most important criteria of the startups' evaluation, critical information they require on different stages and other elements that finally bring them to the decision to invest in a startup or not.

๐Ÿ‘‡Here are some of the most interesting answers they gave us๐Ÿ‘‡

โœ”๏ธ Over 85% of investors consider market data to be essentially important for making investment decision
โœ”๏ธ Every second investor would avoid financing a startup without a marketing strategy
โœ”๏ธ Over 90% of investors mentioned among the TOP startup mistakes the lack of clear and detailed business model

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ’ทThe UK government will reportedly buy stakes in tech startups!

Financial Times sources say the country is establishing a "Future Fund: Breakthrough" effort that would spend up to ยฃ375 million (about $522 million) on stakes in "later stage" tech startups.

๐Ÿ‘€According to some rumours, every investment would range into the "tens of millions of pounds" and would be matched by private funds. It would focus on a relatively small number of larger companies.

๐Ÿ’ฐA fund like this would raise questions๐Ÿ‘‡

Are there any mechanisms to avoid favoritismโ“
