Investors want proof of adoption, not hype. A Telegram group with 10,000 people means little without usage. For infra plays, show developer integrations; for apps, daily active users and transaction volume matter most. Even modest numbers are fine if retention is strong — but traction must be real, not just noise.
Web3-native funds understand tokenomics, regulation, and crypto go-to-market better than anyone. Generalist firms add institutional credibility and help with later-stage scaling. The strongest rounds often mix both: a Web3 lead for domain expertise, and a generalist to validate your long-term potential.
Shaky tokenomics. If insiders hold too much supply, vesting lets them dump early, or the token has no utility beyond speculation, serious funds won’t bite. Other turn-offs include unclear regulatory strategy, fully anonymous teams with no credibility, and over-reliance on hype instead of adoption.
