Andalusia Labs Achieves Unicorn Valuation
Weekly Recap
Crypto funding remained elevated for the third consecutive week, totaling $271 million, a slight drop from last week’s $289 million. The most funded category was Web3 and NFTs, largely due to a $140 million round closed by Line Next, the Web3 unit of the Japanese messaging app Line. Crescendo Equity Partners, a Peter Thiel-backed private equity firm, led the investment round. Infrastructure was the most popular category from a deal count perspective, tallying 12 deals worth $69 million, including our Deal of the Week, Andalusia Labs.
The majority of this week’s funding rounds failed to disclose the deal stage, but Series A and Seed rounds accounted for 33% of total funding and 41% of the deal count. There was one Series B round completed by Lolli, a cashback Bitcoin rewards company, marking the second consecutive week with a successful Series B round in a year that has only seen thirteen total. It will be interesting to watch if there is an uptick in mid to late-stage deals in 2024.
