Crypto startups USA: NAUT tracks 29 funding rounds at 28 US crypto companies announced between 1 July and 14 November 2026, and the 21 rounds with an amount NAUT can stand behind add up to $875M. Prime Intellect's $130M Series A is the largest of them, and Lattice sits in 3 of the 29 rounds on NAUT's record, more than any other backer.

Data as of 14 November 2026, from NAUT's funding records, built by the NAUT team. NAUT holds 90 rounds dated 1 July to 14 November 2026 at companies it tags as based in the United States. 24 of them are M&A, IPO, post-IPO, incubation or other non-venture entries, 8 sit at AI-only or other non-crypto companies, and 3 have no description and no sector tag, which leaves 55. This report keeps the 29 whose company description on NAUT names a crypto, blockchain, on-chain, stablecoin, tokenization or decentralized product. Of the 26 set aside, 12 have an empty description, 13 have a description that names no crypto product, and 1 sits on a company record with no NAUT page. 20 research rows looked up outside reports: 14 of them cover 13 of the 29 rounds kept here, so 16 kept rounds were not put through that check. Dates are the announce dates shown on each company's NAUT page.

4 amounts are held back from every total below. NAUT's own data checks flag the Kalshi Series G and the Polymarket round as needing a source before use, and research found no report of a round at the size NAUT holds for the Circle PIPE or the Payward strategic round. The $875M includes 3 debt financings worth $170M.
