DCG State of Crypto

The blockchain industry can be noisy and volatile, but behind the scenes, the space is steadily growing and maturing. DCG has now invested in 145 blockchain startups across more than 30 countries, giving us unparalleled insight into what is happening in the marketplace. We polled our portfolio company founders and CEOs in order to provide this perspective to the world beyond DCG. In our inaugural industry survey, we received responses from over 60 DCG portfolio company executives across two surveys: first, at the beginning of 2019, as the industry was in the pits of Crypto Winter, and second, halfway through the year after digital currency prices had recovered. We gathered perspectives on a range of topics, trends, and developments, including regulation, use cases, talent, the state of the technology, and potential industry consolidation.
