Key claims & sources

✓
From Oct. 3–9, crypto and Web3 funding announcements totaled $380.51 million across 16 disclosed transactions.
✓
Spiko and Nous Research each disclosed a $90 million round in that week.
✓
Tokenized cash funds and open-source artificial intelligence drew the largest disclosed crypto raises in the Oct. 3–9 period.
✓
Two transactions in that same week disclosed no amounts.

What it means

In practice, the week still included both large disclosed rounds and transactions with no amounts attached, so the public picture remains incomplete even as the disclosed total is fixed at $380.51 million. That means the funding list can be read for named rounds and disclosed sizes, but not as a complete accounting of every transaction’s value.
