Recently funded crypto startups: 26 rounds, Lattice backed 5

By NAUT Research · · 6 min read

$1.18B Recently funded crypto disclosed by 19 of 26 rounds announced 14 October to 5 November 2026. Logos: Kalshi, PhotonPay, Hyperbolic Labs, Luxor, Mural, LO:TECH, Dataline, Fission Labs.

NAUT tracks 26 recently funded crypto startups (3 of them adjacent, named below) whose rounds were announced between 14 October and 5 November 2026, and 19 of those rounds disclosed amounts that add up to $1.18B on NAUT's record. Kalshi took $1B of that in a Series G, Lattice sits on 5 of the 26 rounds, and every company and lead below links to its NAUT page.

How this list was built: NAUT's data, read on 13 November 2026, holds 43 non-launchpad rounds announced since 14 October 2026. 15 came out before writing: 5 acquisitions, 2 OTC token purchases, 2 rounds at public companies, and 6 rows judged outside crypto startups (among them a bank and TradFi market infrastructure). 2 more were left out because the company has no public NAUT page yet, which leaves 26. Ibis (private credit), Lighthouse.Storage (storage) and Kalshi (a regulated prediction market with crypto deposits) have no token or chain of their own on NAUT; they are here because NAUT holds them: Ibis has FalconX as lead, Kalshi takes crypto deposits, and Lighthouse.Storage is tagged AI on NAUT. 12 of the 26 rounds were checked against a press or deal page in this run: 10 were confirmed and 2 disagreed with NAUT's record (note 1), and the other 14 rest on NAUT's record alone. Backer and lead counts are NAUT's record, which can miss a firm a press release names.

Which recently funded crypto startups raised, and who led each?

These are the crypto startups that raised in the window, plus the 3 other startups named above: 26 rounds listed newest first by announcement date. "Lead" is the firm NAUT's record marks as lead; the backer count covers every investor NAUT holds on the round, and "no amount" means none is on NAUT's record.

Series B, 5 Nov, no amount None marked; 6 backers
Strategic, 5 Nov, $0.5M ; 1 backer
Strategic, 4 Nov, no amount None marked; 1 backer

Note 1: the sources checked in this run disagreed with NAUT's record on these 2 rows, on the stage and lead for Hyperbolic Labs and on whether $8M was the seed round for Multiliquid. Treat both as NAUT's record only until a second source settles them.

By stage, NAUT's record splits these crypto funding rounds into 9 strategic rounds, 7 seed, 4 Series A, and 1 each of pre-seed, extended seed, extended Series A, Series B, Series C and Series G. 16 of the 26 rounds have a lead marked on NAUT, and 25 carry at least 1 backer; NAUT holds no backer yet for Trade xyz.

How much did the recently funded crypto startups raise?

18 of the 19 disclosed rounds sit below $50M, so the chart leaves out Kalshi to keep them readable.

Raised per round, 18 disclosed amounts excluding Kalshi
  1. PhotonPay$40M
  2. Hyperbolic Labs$30M
  3. Luxor$16M
  4. Mural$15M
  5. LO:TECH$12M
  6. Dataline$10.6M
  7. Fission Labs$10M
  8. 0xPredicate$8M
  9. Multiliquid$8M
  10. Cancore$7.2M
  11. Takenos$7M
  12. HoneyB$5M
  13. Birch Hill$4M
  14. Bloquo$3.7M
  15. CRSHMARKET$3.5M
  16. Spout Finance$2M
  17. hylo_so$1M
  18. Unruggable$0.5M

Without Kalshi, the other 18 disclosed rounds add up to $183.5M, and the median of all 19 is $8M. Both totals include the 2 rows in note 1. 7 rounds have no amount on NAUT's record.

Kalshi's round is the outlier: a report checked in this run puts it at $1B in Series G funding at a $40B post-money valuation, and NAUT's record marks Sequoia Capital and Wellington Management as co-leads.
