The new standard for safekeeping digital assets
Seed funding is typically the first significant round of institutional or angel capital a startup raises. Companies at the seed stage usually have a working product or a strong prototype and are beginning to acquire early customers. This stage bridges the gap between concept validation and achieving the traction needed for a Series A.
$500K - $5M
The actual amount varies based on market conditions, company traction, and investor appetite.
Seed funding is used to refine the product based on early customer feedback, build out the core team (typically engineering and go-to-market roles), establish initial go-to-market channels, and generate enough traction to raise a Series A within 12-18 months.
Seed-stage investors include angel investors, seed-focused venture capital firms, and accelerator programs. Notable seed-stage investors include firms like First Round Capital, Precursor Ventures, and Initialized Capital, as well as individual angels with domain expertise.
Seed-stage startups are typically evaluated on early revenue or user growth, the size and defensibility of their target market, product-market fit signals, and the strength of the founding team. Monthly recurring revenue (MRR) in the low five figures or strong user engagement metrics are common benchmarks.
