A16z’s $15B Megafund Sends a Clear Message About America’s Tech Future
Andreessen Horowitz just closed more than $15 billion across five new venture funds, representing over 18% of all U.S. venture capital raised in 2025 — a staggering share for a single firm. Ben Horowitz says the goal is simple but ambitious: ensure the U.S. “wins the next 100 years of technology,” with AI and crypto at the core of that mission.
Even without a dedicated crypto fund in this round, a16z’s long-running conviction in Web3 remains obvious. The firm continues backing major players like Coinbase, Solana, EigenLayer, Jito, and Kalshi, reinforcing crypto’s role in America’s broader innovation strategy.
It’s a powerful signal that the intersection of AI, blockchain, and national competitiveness is only getting more important — and that one of Silicon Valley’s biggest forces is doubling down for the decade ahead.
