Venture Capital in Bitcoin: Investments in Bitcoin companies

The first wave of Bitcoin investment was about buying the coin. The next wave is about building the rails, and the VCs are now placing their bets.

With institutional demand surging post-ETF, we sit down with Dr. Khushboo Kullar, a VC investor actively backing Bitcoin startups with Lightning Ventures, to get the inside scoop on the infrastructure boom. From advanced custody solutions and on-chain vaults (the so-called "ETFs 2.0") to the scaling tools bridging Bitcoin with traditional finance. She’s seeing where the smart money is actually deploying.

From her unique vantage point, Dr. Kullar will break down:

· The Hot Sectors: Which Bitcoin infrastructure projects are drawing the most capital right now. · The Funding Shift: Why early-stage deals have slowed, but later-stage quality bets are rising. · The 2026 Outlook: How regulatory clarity is shaping the next wave of venture funding.
