Between June 13 and 20, 2026, the Incrypted editorial team tracked 17 investment deals. In 11 cases, the companies disclosed the amounts — the total volume came to almost $283 million. Among the recorded deals are venture rounds, corporate investments and other forms of raising capital. The details are in the weekly digest.
Classic venture
During this period, 10 projects received funding from venture investors totaling about $149 million. In particular:
- $15 million (+$125 million) — Karta. The startup, which issues unsecured Visa credit cards for customers outside the US, raised funds in a Series A round led by Galaxy Ventures with the participation of Illuminate, Canary and Clocktower Ventures. Karta currently works with about 85 private banks and wealth-management firms, including Itaú, Raymond James and XP International US.

The startup was funded by Bettor Capital, Commerce Ventures, Decades Holdings and Thayer Street Partners. Together with the round, the company announced the launch of the Account Funding Transactions (AFT) feature, which allows customers to top up accounts via debit cards in real time with multi-layered fraud protection — for scenarios such as account-to-account transfers, neobanking and non-brokerage operations, and crypto-wallet top-ups.

The company, which provides financial infrastructure for cross-border payments and stablecoin settlements, raised funding in a Series A round led by CoinFund, with the participation of Coinbase Ventures, Haun Ventures, Jump Crypto, Valor Capital, Paxos, HOF Capital and others.

- $18.50 million — EarnOS. The company received capital from 1kx, Coinbase Ventures, Circle Ventures, Social Graph Ventures and Verona. $6 million came as part of a seed funding round, and $12.5 million as part of a strategic investment.

The startup's crypto infrastructure is provided by partners: Turnkey — non-custodial wallets, Rain — card infrastructure for payouts.
- $9 million — El Dorado. The Latin American cross-border payments application raised funds in a Series A round led by Paradigm, with the participation of Coinbase Ventures and Verda Ventures. El Dorado also launched a business unit for corporate clients, built on the Tempo L1 blockchain. The company will direct the funds raised toward developing payment infrastructure for the Latin American cross-border remittance market.
- $8.3 million — Range. The platform, which connects companies working with stablecoins and fiat currencies, raised funds in a Series A round. The company noted that the funds were raised during one of the most difficult periods for fundraising in the crypto industry. Investors: the traditional fintech funds TX Ventures and SixThirty, as well as the crypto-focused Maven 11 Capital and Onigiri Capital.

- $5 million — Power.Win. The licensed crypto-native gaming and entertainment platform raised funding from Polychain Capital. Power.Win offers its own games, prediction markets, real-time poker and sports betting, as well as an ecosystem of more than 2,000 third-party games. The funds will go toward liquidity, the development of the game library, scaling the betting infrastructure and licensing in several jurisdictions.
- $2.5 million — CoraAi. The platform received funds as part of private and strategic funding rounds. CoraAi develops Web3 infrastructure based on token-locking, liquidity-locking, vesting and transparent on-chain verification mechanisms.
- $1.5 million — Renaiss. The project, which is developing infrastructure for tokenized real-world assets on BNB Chain, raised new capital. The funding round was led by YZi Labs, with participation also from Gate Ventures, Hash Global, XIN Family, Redline Labs, as well as angel investors from Mask Network, Far East Group, Logoman, Hoopi and Legit App. Renaiss will direct the funds toward scaling its vault network, entering new categories of collectible assets, strengthening product and ecosystem integrations, improving capital efficiency and expanding its global presence.
Five more projects raised funding but did not disclose the amount of the investment.
Flutterwave, a leading provider of payment infrastructure in Africa, received a strategic investment from Ripple. The funding is part of a Series E round that valued the company at $3.2 billion.
The IOTrader project raised funding in a pre-seed round with the participation of Dubai Block, The Crypto Launch and Erc20 Capital.
The startup Xeffy received a strategic investment and a grant from XPhere.
The company Re announced that it had raised a strategic investment from Coinbase Ventures, Coinbase's venture arm.
Multipli received an investment from Coinbase Ventures through the Base Ecosystem Fund — the terms of the deal are not disclosed. The investment follows Multipli's previous $20 million round led by Pantera Capital with the participation of Spartan Group and Sequoia.
Token sales
Activity in the sector this week was insignificant. Several ICOs (initial coin offerings) and IEOs (initial exchange offerings, in which the token sale is organized and controlled by a centralized crypto exchange) took place.
In particular, the Cineflicks, BitFi and CAP projects raised investment.
In addition, up-to-date data on current and upcoming token sales is available in a dedicated section of our website, where users can review information about active and planned token-sale campaigns. Besides this, our team regularly updates a dedicated Telegram channel, promptly covering key events.
Corporate placements and deals
Institutional participants continue to raise funding, although activity has dropped sharply. Last week, only one deal was registered:
- $125 million — Karta. The project received a credit line from CIM. More on the startup above in the article.
Acquisitions and mergers
Between June 13 and 20, three company purchase and acquisition deals were recorded on the market.
Crypto data provider Blockworks acquired Messari, a company specializing in digital-asset research and analytics. According to WSJ, the deal amount exceeded $10 million — despite the fact that back in 2022 Messari was valued at about $300 million. The significant discount reflects both the difficult situation inside Messari itself and the general decline in crypto-company valuations against the backdrop of a prolonged bear market.
Siiibo. Metaplanet concluded a share purchase and sale agreement to acquire Siiibo Securities, turning it into its wholly owned subsidiary. The decision was made by the company's executive committee within the powers delegated by the board of directors. The deal was concluded with individual shareholders of Siiibo Securities. After completing the acquisition and carrying out all necessary procedures, Metaplanet plans to rename Siiibo Securities as Metaplanet Securities.
In addition, Inveniam Capital Partners announced its intention to acquire MANTRA and the structures associated with it. The deal is intended to combine tokenized-asset infrastructure with private-market data prepared for artificial-intelligence systems. After completion, the MANTRA Chain blockchain, the project's token and the entire ecosystem will continue to operate as usual, while the MANTRA community will be integrated into the broader Inveniam ecosystem. Inveniam plans to complete the acquisition before June 30, 2026.
