Castle Island Ventures has raised $250 million to aid crypto startups
Fidelity alumni, Nic Carter, had founded an early-stage venture capital firm exclusively focused on public blockchains called Castle Island Ventures. As per a recent report from Bloomberg, the 4-year old firm has raised a quarter of a billion dollars to aid crypto-based startups. There has been a rapid rise in such funds.
Castle Island Ventures to support startups
With the crypto industry booming as it never had, a number of firms have come out in support of crypto-based startups. Castle Island Ventures has raised $250 million, which will be used to build monetary networks, financial services, and architecture for Web 3.0.Castle Island Ventures was co-founded by Nic Carter and Matt Walsh and had previously raised $30 million and $50 million as well. Moreover, the firm promoted principal Ria Bhutoria, another Fidelity alum, to a general partner at the firm.
"The market opportunity and the wave of entrepreneurs that are actually starting things are just a lot bigger," Walsh said in a phone interview. "The way we've reacted to the explosion in space is to beef up our team and give ourselves the ability to go out and be a lot more aggressive in deploying capital in some of these companies."
More funds coming in
Recently, FTX announced the formation of FTX Ventures which will invest in crypto-based startups. The firm's formation was followed by a $2 billion fund which will be headed by Amy Wu, General Partner at the firm.It is also to be noted that the metaverse project, The Sandbox, has announced its metaverse startup accelerator program with a $50 million fund. Like Castle Island Ventures, The Sandbox also attempts to fund 30-40 crypto-based startups where the top performers will be awarded incentives, and high-profile mentors will lead them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
