DWF Ventures Report Reveals $76B Crypto Treasury Investment by Public Companies
Leading web3 venture capital firm DWF Ventures has published a research report revealing the growth in crypto treasury investment by public companies. It has identified 14 companies that have rolled out a crypto investment strategy, and who collectively now hold digital assets worth $76B. In the past year, DWF Ventures has noted investments of more than $40B made by public companies. It pinpoints a total of 14 such companies that now have significant crypto treasuries. Aside from the Michael Saylor-led Strategy with its $67B investment, DWF Ventures cites public companies such as Trump Media, GameStop, Metaplanet, Tesla, and Semler Scientific. The report examines the different ways in which publicly listed companies can raise capital and deploy crypto treasuries. Examples include Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE); At-The-Market (ATM) Equity Sales; Credit Facility; Reverse Merger; and Company Treasury. It notes the popularity of PIPE and convertible notes as used by the likes of Trump Media, Interactive Strength, and GameStop. DWF Ventures also explores the crypto assets that public companies have elected to acquire. Bitcoin predictably dominates, but it highlights examples of companies that have established altcoin treasuries. These include Nano Labs (BNB) as well as companies investing in ETH, SOL, SUI, and TRX. One of the more interesting deals that was examined as a case study is Tron's reverse merger. This will effectively see Tron go public in the U.S. through a reverse merger with Nasdaq-listed SRM Entertainment Inc. (SRM). SRM Entertainment has also entered into a $100 million equity agreement to fund its Tron treasury. The report concludes: 'Building on our recent investment in Interactive Strength (TRNR) for the FET treasury, DWF Labs is actively exploring further opportunities within the US equity market. The company is keen to engage in similar structured deals moving forward.' The DWF Ventures crypto treasury report can be read in full here.

DWF Ventures Analyzes Performance of Binance Alpha and Spot Listings
Dubai, UAE, June 13th, 2025, Chainwire Leading web3 investor DWF Ventures has published an analysis of Binance Alpha and Spot listings. It examines the performance of projects that have reached the exchange's spot market following a token launch on Binance Alpha. DWF Ventures has comprehensively analyzed the projects that have featured on Binance Alpha following the introduction of the listing mechanism in 2024. It highlights the increased transparency that Alpha brings by enabling users to appraise the merits of emerging tokens, some of which have the potential to migrate to a Binance Spot listing. Research conducted by DWF Ventures has found that of the more than 190 projects to have been selected by Binance Alpha to date, more than 70% are currently trading at below $50M market cap, while a handful of outliers such as Ondo and Virtuals have surpassed $1B valuation. DWF Ventures' analysis also shows that memecoins and AI agents have dominated Binance Alpha projects with DeFi in third place. Memecoins and AI agents surpass all other onchain sectors featured in Binance Alpha combined. DWF further found that Solana was the most popular chain for featured projects, followed closely by BNB Chain and Ethereum. Key findings from DWF Ventures' Binance Alpha report include the fact that around 10% of Alpha projects converted to a Spot listing, with a total of 19 making the grade. DeFi and memecoins had the highest conversion rate, while the most valuable projects after Ondo and Virtuals were Maple Finance and Cookie DAO. DWF Ventures summarizes its report by noting that projects that migrate from Alpha to Spot are typically defined by active social media engagement, high trading volume, and are category leaders in popular onchain verticals.
