The Web3 asset data platform RootData has outlined 78 business partners of Anchorage, including over 30 DeFi protocols, more than 20 blockchain infrastructure projects, as well as various stablecoins and payment settlement networks, covering the complete path from asset issuance to on-chain operations.Represented by institutions like BlackRock, products such as ETFs bring funds into the crypto market, after which Anchorage assumes custody and compliance responsibilities. These assets are then deployed on-chain, participating in liquidity operations and yield generation through DeFi protocols, stablecoin systems, and infrastructure networks. Ultimately, they flow back into the traditional financial system through OTC, trading, and clearing paths.In this process, Anchorage's role is not just "custody," but a key node throughout the entire lifecycle of funds, with its upstream and downstream including crypto-native institutions such as A16z, Blockchain Capital, Electric Capital, and Defiance, as well as DeFi protocols, L1/L2 networks, stablecoins, and clearing and settlement systems, along with fintech companies like AngelList and Series Financial, as well as payment companies and core banking systems.Anchorage's partner strategy emphasizes "key path coverage," ensuring that funds have corresponding infrastructure at every stage. As compliant entry points like ETFs gradually open up, the crypto market shifts towards asset allocation-driven strategies, and bridge-type institutions like Anchorage are moving from the background to the core.

According to Fortune magazine, in the context of a downturn in the crypto market in 2025 and the distribution of profits to investors, the portfolio values of crypto venture capital firms such as Paradigm and a16z crypto have significantly shrunk.According to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the total assets under management (AUM) of four crypto funds under a16z crypto dropped nearly 40% from 2024 to 2025, falling to $9.5 billion. Part of the reason is that the firm began returning capital to investors from earlier funds, and the timing of the returns coincided with the market peak in 2025, with a net DPI (distributions to paid-in capital) of 5.4 for its first crypto fund.Multicoin Capital's AUM has more than halved, dropping to about $2.7 billion. Paradigm's holdings also slightly decreased by about 6%. Meanwhile, the total size of a16z crypto's parent company, Andreessen Horowitz, has exceeded $100 billion.The report points out that the shrinkage in assets under management reflects the decline in portfolio value due to the market downturn, and is also a sign of normal exits by VCs and the return of funds to limited partners (LPs). Some firms, such as Haun Ventures, have seen their AUM grow by over 30%, reaching around $2.5 billion.Currently, Paradigm is seeking to raise a new fund of $1.5 billion, and a16z crypto is also raising up to $2 billion for its fifth fund.

Yili Hua posted on platform X, acknowledging that he is very ordinary yet important. Whether in the classical industry or entering the cryptocurrency space, we have always focused on primary investment Liquid Capital & investment bank Liquid Digital and secondary trading Trend Research (crypto) & Trend Investment (classical). Although operating projects and exchanges are very profitable, our energy and capabilities are indeed limited, leaving us only to envy and be jealous.In 2018, we incubated a market maker, but because the team kept the profits for themselves and left the losses to us, we were left battered and bruised. After exiting in 2019, we have not deeply participated in market making again; at most, we have seen some good trading teams and made some investments. Conspiracy theories are always the most popular, but I am not a hexagonal warrior; where would I have the ability and energy to manage projects? The exchanges are very clear about this.
