CMT Digital has raised $136 million for its fourth venture capital fund focused on cryptocurrency and blockchain startups, signaling renewed investor confidence in the sector. The Chicago-based firm, known for early investments in Coinbase and Solana, reportedly turned away additional investors due to strong demand. The new fund will target early-stage projects in decentralized finance, infrastructure, and emerging digital asset technologies. Despite broader market volatility, CMT Digital’s successful raise highlights a rebound in crypto venture capital activity and sustained institutional interest in blockchain innovation heading into 2026.
