@Immutable @animocabrands @HomaGames @theorycraft_inc @INKGames @budcreate @PlayableWorlds @zepeto_official @FortePlatform @TheSandboxGame @SkyMavisHQ @Sorare @playmythical The number and value of series B deals in 2022 are both lower than in 2021. While the quantity and value of seed deals are higher in 2022 than in 2021. This shows that the taste of 2022 investment funds is to take higher risks.
