Fintech investments slated for revival on more digital asset deals

Deal value for crypto, blockchain, and digital assets hit just shy of $1b in 2024.

A fintech revival may be on the horizon with digital assets generating fresh excitement from investors, according to a report by Deloitte.

Median check-size for both late-stage venture capital (VC) and venture-growth deals rebounded in 2024, rising by 25% and 109.9%, respectively, according to a Deloitte report released on March 2025.

Amongst sectors, cryptocurrency, blockchain, and digital assets (CB&DA) recorded a cumulative deal value just shy of $1b across 91 transactions in 2024.

In 2024, Southeast Asia’s (SEA) fintech ecosystem saw its funding drop 23% year-on-year (YoY) to $1.6b in 2024, according to data from Traxcn.

Beyond digital assets, fintech is seeing a slow but steady return to growth in expansion-stage dealmaking, Deloitte said. Just under 500 deals were closed in 2024.

Fintech valuations have begun to normalize in 2024, with buyouts accounting for a greater share of exit activity.
