K33 Research 的数据显示，2023 年第一季度 Web3 风险投资大幅下降，同比下降 80%。
这些数字与 The Block Pro 的数据相符，该数据显示 2022 年第一季度风险投资投资了 135 亿美元，而今年第一季度仅为 28 亿美元。下降了 79%。
K33 Research 的安德斯·赫尔塞斯 (Anders Helseth) 表示，可能还会出现进一步下降。
“如果我们看一下 web3 和加密货币的总计，2022 年上半年风险投资的投资额为 150 亿美元。但是，今年第一季度和第二季度，这一数字估计约为 40 亿美元，并且可能会进一步减少，“ 他说。
2023 年剩余时间的预测
The Block Pro 的预测更为乐观，预计 2023 年全年 1,876 笔区块链交易的投资将达到 120 亿美元。这将比上一年减少 64%，交易数量将减少 24%。
据 The Block Pro 称，2022 年区块链风险投资总额达 332 亿美元，交易数量达 2,453 笔。
资金下降
Helseth 指出，有两类项目在 2022 年获得了大量资金，包括以太坊替代第一层协议，如 Avalanche Cardano 和 Solana，以及与 NFT 和元宇宙相关的项目。
“风险投资公司对以太坊的第一层替代品以及基于 NFT 和 Metaverse 领域的项目失去了信心，”他表示。
K33 的一份报告指出：“Web3 资金的下降并不是对未来几年正在建设的 web3 服务的迫在眉睫的威胁，但像所有项目一样，金库必须在枯竭之前重新填满。”
