CryptoDep drew attention on April 13 with a new X post titled “Top Recent Crypto Fundraising Events,” and it shows that crypto fundraising is still moving across several parts of the market at once. The list spans infrastructure, AI, consumer fintech, social apps, prediction markets, exchanges, and DeFi, with disclosed rounds ranging from seven figures to a standout $44 million Series A for Pharos. The post is less about one single theme than a broad return of capital to projects that sit at the intersection of crypto and consumer or financial utility.

The biggest disclosed raise in the roundup belongs to Pharos, which said it closed a $44 million Series A round to build out on-chain real-world asset infrastructure across Asia and beyond. The company describes itself as a financial-grade, asset-native Layer 1 chain, and the new capital brings its total funding to $52 million. That is a strong signal that the RWA narrative is still attracting serious investor attention, especially in projects that are trying to combine compliance, settlement rails, and blockchain infrastructure in one stack.

Another notable line item is Oh, which reportedly raised $7.5 million in a Series A led by Maven11 Capital, with support from L1D, Auros Global, Hashed, Maelstrom Fund, and Cadenza Ventures, while earlier backers such as Cyber Fund, Kosmos VC, and Tangent also joined. The project is building a Web3 AI platform and decentralized AI service tools, including OhChat, which places it in the fast-growing overlap between crypto, AI infrastructure, and consumer-facing AI products. In other words, this is the kind of funding story that shows investors are still willing to back AI-native crypto ideas when the product angle feels clear enough.

Consumer rewards and social products also made the list. GoSats raised $5 million in a Series A led by Konvoy, with participation from Y Combinator and Taisu Ventures, and the company says the money will help it expand a platform that turns everyday spending into Bitcoin and gold rewards. Giggles, meanwhile, closed a $1.2 million pre-seed round led by 1kx, with backing from Virtuals Protocol, Social Graph Ventures, Noar Ventures, and other investors.

Giggles has been described as a social app where content itself is tradable, which puts it squarely in the emerging category of social finance and tokenized attention. Both rounds suggest that investors still see room for crypto products that feel more like everyday apps than classic trading tools.

The DeFi names on CryptoDep’s post tell a similar story. Enhanced raised $1 million in a strategic pre-seed led by Maximum Frequency Ventures, with GSR, Selini, and Flowdesk participating, to expand structured yield and options-based strategies across more on-chain assets, including tokenized real-world assets.

Splyce Finance also completed a strategic round, with investors including the Sui Foundation, Stellar Foundation, and Solana Foundation, although the amount was not disclosed. Predict.fun is another case where the money is not public, but the backing is meaningful: YZi Labs said it made a strategic follow-on investment alongside Susquehanna Crypto after the project’s EASY Residency run, and the platform has also been tied to Binance Wallet’s prediction market push.

The roundup also included CAEX, the Vietnam-linked exchange that drew strategic backing from OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital as it works toward meeting Vietnam’s capital requirements for a regulated crypto pilot, and several of the deals in the image are still marked TBA because their terms were not fully disclosed at the time of reporting. Taken together, CryptoDep’s post shows a market that is not just funding speculative ideas, but also trying to bankroll the plumbing, compliance, and consumer layers that could define the next phase of crypto adoption.
