VC backed NFT brands are crushing it in 2025.
Founders with aggressive targets for FP and tokens. Market makers delivering.
Behind the scenes it is backroom deals and closed door plays. Classic Web2 tactics now amplified by Web3’s scarcity mindset.
And honestly, it is working.
This chain reaction also reinforces my thesis more than ever:
Brand built without VCs and powered by culture, conviction, solid products and community are the real underdogs.
They will not move as fast. They will not have insiders rigging floors into oblivion. But they will build meaning and cultural equity.
And that always compounds over time till corps and big money buy in organically.
Every VC backed moonshot makes the absence of real culture more obvious.
Community driven ecosystems like Azuki and $ANIME (and many others) will rise hard when its go time.
Not as financial instruments but as cultural forces built on strong fundamentals.
All that value will attract value in perpetuity. Be it for VCs, market makers and notable companies. An organic rise.
The comeback will be legendary and I am here for it.
