Framework Ventures Puts Hyperliquid at Center of Its New $400M Crypto Fund Push

Framework raises $400M fourth fund as Hyperliquid, Plasma, and Sky remain major crypto positions, according to reports.

Framework Ventures has raised $400 million for its fourth fund as it widens its investment strategy.

The firm plans to back crypto projects while also expanding into AI, robotics, energy, and fintech.

According to Fortune, Framework said its major crypto positions include Hyperliquid, Plasma, and Sky.

The new fund shows that crypto venture firms are still raising capital despite a slower digital asset market.

Framework Raises New $400M Fund

Framework Ventures raised $400 million for its fourth fund, known as FVIV. The raise comes as the firm expands its mandate beyond crypto-only investments. 

It now plans to invest across blockchain and other frontier technology sectors.

The firm was founded in 2019 and became known for early DeFi investments. Fortune reported that Framework was an early backer of Aave and Chainlink. 

Those deals helped shape its position as a crypto-focused venture investor.

Framework had about $1.28 billion in assets under management as of December 2025. 

The latest fund adds new capital for both digital assets and private startup investments. It also gives the firm more room to support early-stage companies.

Hyperliquid Leads Crypto Positions

Framework said its major crypto positions include Hyperliquid, Plasma, and Sky. Hyperliquid has drawn market attention through its role in decentralized trading. 

The token and platform now sit at the center of Framework’s latest crypto exposure. Plasma and Sky also remain part of the firm’s digital asset strategy. 

These positions show that Framework has not moved away from crypto. Instead, the new fund appears to place crypto beside other fast-growing technology sectors.

About half of the new $400 million fund has already been deployed. That means Framework has already committed a large share of the capital. 

The remaining funds may support more deals across crypto and frontier technology.

AI and Robotics Join Crypto Strategy

Framework’s new mandate includes AI, robotics, energy, and fintech. The shift follows a wider trend among venture firms that started in crypto. 

Many are now looking at areas where software, hardware, and financial systems meet.

The firm said its conviction in digital assets remains unchanged. However, the new fund gives it flexibility to follow founders into nearby sectors. 

That approach allows Framework to support projects outside traditional blockchain categories.

For the crypto market, Hyperliquid remains one of the key names in the fund’s public strategy. 

Framework’s position places the project alongside Plasma and Sky in its digital asset portfolio. 

The next focus will be on how the firm balances crypto exposure with newer technology bets.
