He notes that entrepreneurs are increasingly seeing Bitcoin as the foundation for long-term projects.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/retail-investors-pile-into-stocks-amid-market-chaos-betting-on-a-rebound\/\" title=\"Retail Investors Pile into Stocks Amid Market Chaos: Betting on a Rebound?\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/How_to_Read_Candlestick_Charts-240x170.jpeg\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">Retail Investors Pile into Stocks Amid Market Chaos: Betting on a Rebound?<\/h4>           \n            \n        <\/div>        \n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>However, he also points out that high operational costs and a focus on regulatory compliance are impacting profitability, especially compared to competitors like Tether.<\/p>\n<p>The funding environment remains cautious amid broader economic concerns. Market instability due to rising interest rates and the potential for a prolonged trade war is dampening investor appetite for riskier assets, including crypto.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, new tariffs introduced by President Trump have added to the uncertainty, leading some venture capital firms to scale back their funding ambitions for 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Industry experts believe that while favorable regulations could reignite investment, economic challenges are likely to keep funding levels below the peaks of the previous crypto boom. Firms like Haun Ventures, which previously made billion-dollar investments, are now adjusting their expectations, signaling a more conservative approach in the current climate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin startup funding has seen a notable surge in early-stage investments, with pre-seed rounds increasing significantly since
