Haun Ventures Raises $1 Billion for Crypto and Blockchain Startup Funds

According to Cointelegraph, Haun Ventures has completed a $1 billion raise split evenly between early- and late-stage funds, with the strategy targeting crypto, AI and alternative asset startups.

Fact Check
The claim is confirmed at the highest level of authority. Haun Ventures' own official blog post at haun.co/writing/fundii (dated May 4, 2026) announces exactly $1 billion in new Fund II capital. Bloomberg independently reported the same figure, specifying the capital is split evenly between early and later-stage funds and will extend into AI agents, fintech, and alternative assets — directly matching the claim's detail about Bloomberg reporting the strategy. The Block, TechCrunch, and Decrypt all corroborate the same facts. There is no conflicting evidence.
