VC Valuation vs. Current Market Cap

During bull runs and narrative hype, VCs tend to overprice projects and assign aggressive valuations. However, once sentiment fades or the narrative loses traction, most projects get a reality check and the market resets those euphoric numbers.

Some examples are, Humanity Protocol, with a first-round valuation of $1 billion, now has a market cap of $285 million; Fuel Network, valued at $1 billion in the first round, now has a market cap of $11 million; Plasma, valued at $500 million in the first round, now has a market cap of $224 million; and Camp Network, valued at $400 million in the first round, now has a market cap of $15 million.
