币界网报道：This article explores how universities, especially Stanford University, have become a new and important driving force for funding in the cryptocurrency space. Blockchain Builders, a blockchain fund founded by three Stanford graduates, raised $28 million to support promising crypto startups, reflecting the activeness of Stanford's blockchain ecosystem. Stanford has become an incubator for crypto innovation through entrepreneurial courses and accelerators, and has promoted the university's investment in the Web3 field. The second phase of the fund will support the IC3 blockchain accelerator led by Cornell University, and jointly promote the practical application of blockchain technology with many top universities. Academic institutions, using their talent and financial advantages, may become the next wave of important funding sources for Web3 innovation. The article also mentioned that the inflow of funds from traditional financial institutions and the approval of ETFs are also driving the development of the crypto industry. Overall, university participation and financial support are expected to become an important driving force for the future of the crypto industry.
