TVP Research Finds Pre-Seed Bitcoin Startup Investment Activity Grows 767% Since 2021

Published

tvp-research-finds-pre-seed-bitcoin-startup-investment-activity-grows-767%-since-2021

AUSTIN, Texas, April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Trammell Venture Partners (“TVP”), an Austin-based venture capital firm, today announced the third annual results of its proprietary research on the growth of the Bitcoin-native startup and venture capital landscape. TVP research shows the Bitcoin startup sector continued its breakout category growth trend of forming and investing in new companies, despite the decline in total dollars invested due to the broader venture investment pullback. With a 50% year-over-year increase in transaction count, and a remarkable 767% increase in funding rounds since 2021, the Pre-Seed stage built on its prior years of growth in 2024.

TVP’s analysis indicates that early-stage, Bitcoin-native startups raised nearly $1.2 billion during the 2021-2024 period, based on four years of longitudinal data research.

“One or two years’ data might represent an anomaly, but with four consecutive years of year-over-year growth at the earliest stage of Bitcoin startup formation, the data now confirm a sustained, long-term venture category trend,” said Christopher Calicott, TVP’s managing director. “Many entrepreneurs across crypto are revisiting the Bitcoin stack as the long-term place to build their companies. It makes perfect sense: the objectively most secure, reliable, and decentralized blockchain is the obvious platform of choice, given the increasing capability to build there. And as this wave of early-stage companies find traction, increasing amounts of crypto value will accrue to the Bitcoin stack—a core thesis for TVP.”

The annual release of TVP’s Bitcoin-Native Venture Capital Landscape Research Brief augments the available research for Bitcoin startups. This research aims to support the institutionalization of venture investment for this emerging growth category within crypto and blockchain venture capital.

The TVP Bitcoin startup investment research brief is available for download.

Bybit and Zodia Custody Partner to Enhance Asset Security

Published

Zodia Custody’s Interchange solution will offer Bybit’s institutional clients independent custody and off-venue settlement to support secure institutional trading.

LONDON, April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Zodia Custody, the institution-first digital assets platform backed by Standard Chartered, Northern Trust, SBI Holdings, National Australia Bank, and Emirates NBD, and Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, have joined forces to bring secure, segregated custody and off-venue settlement to Bybit’s institutional clients.

In engaging with digital assets, institutional investors require the assurances of regulatory compliance and robust security measures to protect their capital. Amid heightened industry scrutiny, there is a corresponding demand for credible infrastructure that addresses the potential weaknesses of on-exchange settlement, including centralised control and counterparty risk.

Zodia Custody’s Interchange solution addresses these security concerns by providing independent asset custody via regulatory-grade infrastructure. Through Interchange, institutional users can deploy capital for immediate trading on Bybit while their assets remain securely held with  Zodia Custody – ensuring full segregation, no co-mingling, and significantly reduced exposure to exchange-side risks. This design neutralises counterparty risk and removes the need to pre-fund exchange accounts, enhancing both capital efficiency and operational integrity.

This partnership elevates security and compliance standards across the digital asset trading space, offering institutional clients access to Bybit’s best-in-class trading infrastructure with the safety of Zodia Custody’s off-venue settlement.

Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody, commented: “Institutional clients need more than speed – they need to know their assets are held securely, off-exchange, and fully under their control. As leading players in the industry, Zodia Custody and Bybit have a shared responsibility to provide tailor-made solutions to increase security and protect capital for the institutions that use our services. That’s what we’re delivering through this partnership. With Interchange, we’re enabling Bybit’s clients to access trading liquidity without compromising on custody standards, counterparty risk, or capital efficiency. It’s custody and settlement built for institutions, not retrofitted for crypto.”

Shunyet Jan, Head of Institutional and Derivatives at Bybit, added: “At Bybit, our mission is to provide institutional-grade solutions that meet the evolving needs of sophisticated investors. Our partnership with Zodia Custody underscores our dedication to compliance, security, and innovation in the digital asset space. Zodia Custody’s reputation as a trusted, highly regulated custodian makes it the ideal partner to safeguard our clients’ assets while enhancing capital efficiency. Together, we are setting new standards for the institutional adoption of digital assets.”

Certified under SOC 1 Type I and II and built for institutions from the ground up, Zodia Custody serves regulated financial institutions, government bodies, crypto platforms, and hedge funds across specific global markets – delivering trust, transparency, and uncompromising security at scale.

This partnership marks a decisive shift toward secure, compliant infrastructure in crypto markets – one where institutions can finally move at speed, without sacrificing safety.
