This week we have some really interesting and diverse deals to review in our Top 5 VC Deals in Digital Wealth column - across multiple sectors and on 3 continents. And even though it's the dead of summer (though in Montana we're already moving straight into fall), there is still some big money moving around in the VC sector for fintech and digital wealth.

Activist hedge funds have fintech companies on their radar now that the space is making waves. Even though the summer is winding down, legacy banks are feeling the heat as the pipeline for fintech M&A and IPOs continues to grow. Coinbase is going across the pond on crypto. Google Pay is suffering some defections, Austin is a hotbed for tech talent and remote work is all the rage.

This week we hear that bitcoin could be considered a “once in a species” phenomenon, learn about the vital role CRMs play in compliance and chat with wealthtech phenom Aaron Schumm of Vestwell plus more!

Bye bye Summer. The end is near. The last two weeks of August are famous for being extremely dull in financial markets and so it is again. So, with a dearth of news (and general malaise of interest) in the financial and fintech markets, here are some follow ups and updates from some "hot" pieces that made headlines the past couple of months.

If the wealth management space is any indication, the economy is humming along just fine. RIAs are hiring top talent and gearing up for more of a digital push. Let’s dive in. 

We've given up acting surprised when every deal each week continues to be over $100M in VC funding, and this week is no different. What I loved seeing is that the US was back in the driver's seat for the top deals internationally in financial technology.

Despite the chaos in the world lately, the financial markets continue to turn. Global fintechs are exploring the U.S. markets for multi-billion-dollar public listings, including more potential SPACs. Just because a company looks like a fintech doesn’t mean it is one. Demand for bitcoin and Ethereum is only growing stronger, and crypto payments have made their way to Android. Let’s dive in.

Greetings, Fintech Friends! This week we review the current (and lingering) demise of gold, learn about the Tezos blockchain and what it means for the future of DeFi and chat with wealthtech CEO Helen Yang of Andes Wealth Technologies plus more!

D, and international in scope. I honestly sometimes feel guilty limiting this list to the Top 5 VC deals, because important deals OVER $100M USD are increasingly not making the cut for this column. But that's where the fintech VC market is headed - "to infinity, and beyond".
