The growth has been remarkably consistent:
• Q4 2025 — $272M
• Q1 2026 — $2.14B
• Q2 2026 — $7.23B
The rise in M&A activity also coincides with the growing share of strategic transactions and a decline in the overall number of venture rounds. As the industry matures, acquisitions are becoming an increasingly important growth strategy.
If the trend continues, 2026 could become the strongest year for crypto M&A activity on record.
