【Crypto World】In the second half of last year, the performance of institutional investors was quite varied. According to on-chain data tracking platform Nansen, in the overall profit and loss rankings, Multicoin and Version One, each with over $17 million in gains, are far ahead and are considered leaders in the space. Close behind is DeFiance Capital, which also achieved quite good results.

Interestingly, established institutions like a16z, Pantera Capital, and Coinbase Ventures frequently appear on the leaderboard, demonstrating their high level of investment activity over the past six months. The actions of these top funds indirectly reflect that institutional capital’s participation in crypto assets has not decreased; instead, they are continuously exploring new opportunities. From adjusting holdings to deploying new projects, every move by these players is reshaping the market landscape.

Multicoin this wave is really fierce, $17 million took off directly --- a16z is still playing, it seems the big shots haven't left yet --- What makes Version One able to catch up with Multicoin, where are the details --- DeFiance ranking third is a bit surprising, I thought it was someone else --- If the second half of the year is so competitive, then is the first half even more outrageous --- Established funds are still active... indicating that the crypto circle isn't cooling down yet --- Is $17 million really considered a lot? Feels not as much as imagined --- Pantera is still grinding, this pace is really steady

$17 million? Back in the day, I made more than that just from a Compound liquidation. And now these small-town problem-solvers are only earning this much?

Ha, Multicoin is really making a killing this time, earning 17 million USD so easily... --- a16z is still holding on, this is what it feels like to be old but resilient --- Why can Version One also compete with Multicoin? Time to catch up on lessons --- DeFiance Capital ranks third? Feels like I haven't heard much about them before --- Only earning this much in the second half of the year? Is the market not as hot as I thought --- Established funds are still actively operating, indicating that big players haven't withdrawn yet --- Institutional profits are so polarized, what about retail investors... Never mind, don't think about it --- Pantera Capital is still exploring new opportunities, their instinct is truly sharp

Multicoin's recent move is indeed impressive. $17 million is just for the first half of the year? It seems that institutional investors understand the market more than retail investors in this cycle.
