Crypto Charts Go Wild—But Are Crypto VCs Just Hiding Behind Binance’s Billions? 😂

Behold! In the mysterious annals of finance, statistics love nothing more than a well-placed distraction. Here comes such a marvel: the grand total of investments galloped mightily upward this quarter—much like a horse startled by fireworks—only for the curtain to be pulled back, revealing a solitary colossus at the banquet table: MGX, tossing $2 billion into Binance’s bottomless cauldron. This singular pot of gold, dear reader, makes up over 40% of all coins hurled at projects. Without MGX parading about with such extravagance, the true sum withers to a mere $2.8 billion, down 20% from the last quarter! Next time, let’s skip the confetti. 🧐

Until then, crypto VC’s “recovery” feels a bit like a staged séance: lots of dramatic gestures, but the ghost has yet to appear. 👻
