Over 2.6 billion USD poured into crypto startups in July – Pump.fun leads the race
July saw a surge in investment into crypto startups, with total fundraising reaching 2.6 billion USD from 65 projects, according to data from #DeFiLlama . Since the beginning of 2025, the crypto industry has attracted 13 billion USD, surpassing the 9.5 billion USD of the entire year 2024. Pitchbook predicts this number will reach 18 billion USD this year.
The three most notable names in July include:
🔹 Pump.fun – 590 million USD
The most attention-grabbing is the ICO of Pump.fun – an ambitious memecoin platform aiming to "take down" Facebook, TikTok, and Twitch. Although it only sold 148 billion tokens $PUMP instead of the planned 150 billion, the project still raised 590 million USD in just 12 minutes, becoming one of the fastest token sales in recent history.
🔹 OSL Group – 300 million USD
The financial group #OSL headquartered in Hong Kong raised 300 million USD to expand global payment infrastructure and financial access points, focusing on the regulated market.
🔹 Upexi – 200 million USD
Upexi – a treasury management company on the Solana network – successfully raised 200 million USD through convertible bonds, aiming to purchase more $SOL . This is part of a wave of treasury companies actively buying crypto, not just Bitcoin.
🟢 Conclusion: Huge capital continues to flow into the crypto market in 2025, indicating increasing confidence in the long-term potential of blockchain projects.
Warning: Investing in cryptocurrencies can be highly volatile and may not be suitable for all investors. It is important to do thorough research before participating. #anhbacong

After observing the recent situation of the top ten public chains based on Defi TVL data, it's evident that Sui is indeed gaining momentum.
Combining the recent price of #Sui , along with most of the previous airdrop results from Sui chain projects, it truly feels like this chain has money. It's worth paying close attention to this chain, as funding will guide new narratives and bring in new funds.
The main reason I focus on Sui is simply that: this is a Layer 1, representing that it won't be "dragged down" by #ETH .
Vitalik is indeed a genius; he has opened up the smart contract platform. However, the largest moat under the ETH and EVM system is Defi and the broad user base it brings. What has made ETH successful is that Defi project parties have directly generated real, lasting, and scalable transactions and capital flows on-chain.
It's not a gimmick, it's not fundraising; it's solid on-chain asset management and trading.
This has also made ETH itself the Gas for all DeFi activities, empowering ETH as a means of production.
In the short term, its top position cannot be replaced, but that does not mean it will never be brought down from its pedestal.
From SOL's rise this year, we can see that the pump has brought infinite vitality to Solana. This chain has use cases, the ecosystem has been built up, and there are indeed users using this chain. The tokens are also empowered, which allows the story to continue.
I would like to mention a certain SxxK; this group of Layer 2 users just wants to take a share of ETH, but in the ecosystem, there isn't a single one doing anything productive.
You can see that the logic behind Kaito's existence has been validated; everyone can be a super individual. The project party hopes to gather information from two types of people to expand project influence: one is early traffic influencers with real fans, and the other is KOLs who can create effective content.
How fast is the Sui ecosystem? They have quickly released GiveRep as an imitation. Regardless of whether this first SocialFi can succeed, in my view, this means there are users and builders, which could lead to new narratives and new opportunities, right?

DeFi Enters a New Growth Phase – Notable Trends!
The decentralized finance (DeFi) market is showing strong signs of recovery, especially as the U.S. government has supportive policies for crypto. Some reports from market analysis organizations suggest that DeFi could enter a new growth phase thanks to greater legal clarity and increasing interest from financial institutions.
New policies pave the way for DeFi
The current legal environment is more open to blockchain technology and decentralized finance. These changes could help reduce legal barriers, facilitating stronger development of DeFi projects.

Brief Analysis: Ethereum Faces Negative Signals in the Short Term
On April 2, 2025, Ethereum (ETH) is showing clear signs of weakness as decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volume declines sharply. The number of unique daily traders has dropped to around 40,000 addresses – the lowest in 12 months, and DEX trading volume has nearly halved, from $112 billion (December 2024) to $57 billion. This reflects a severe drop in activity on the Ethereum mainnet, putting significant pressure on ETH prices.

DeFiLlama Founder Accuses Artemis of Data Plagiarism
DeFiLlama founder 0xngmi has accused the data analytics platform Artemis of copying data without crediting it. To verify the allegation, DeFiLlama inserted some fake data into its database for a now-defunct protocol. Soon after, the fake numbers appeared on Artemis, accompanied by the note “Source: Artemis.”
0xngmi said they had previously discovered that Artemis had used DeFiLlama data without citing the source. When asked for transparency, Artemis continued to take data from multiple protocols and credit it as its own.

How to distinguish a promising DeFi protocol from a scam?
DeFi is rapidly developing, but among hundreds of projects, there are many scams.
Here are the signs that you are facing a real project:
Open and audited code. If the contract is closed, it is a red flag.
Presence of a team and partners. It is better if the team is not anonymous and collaborates with other DeFi protocols.
Normal profitability. If the project promises 1000% annual returns with no risk, run away.
Presence on aggregators like DefiLlama, CoinGecko: this adds credibility.
Do not invest just for the “pretty cover,” first research thoroughly.
