International early-stage startup investment firm Click Ventures has recently presented and published an extensive overview of what the global blockchain ecosystem looked like in 2018, put together with help from tech.eu, Estonia's Funderbeam and Oddup.
The report we contributed to offers a ton of data points and insights, and best of all: it's free of charge. You can download the report directly by following this link.
According to the research, Europe was the second-largest ICO market in the world in 2018, both in terms of the number of deals and amount raised. Interestingly, it also came first in the average ICO round size, which almost reached $50 million.
The report also features more data-driven insights, explanations of industry terminology and concepts, interesting blockchain use cases (and limitations) from across industries, an overview of corporates employing blockchain technology for various reasons, a list of consortiums and exchanges, miners etc., and much more.
In short, it's a must-read.
