CMT Digital, a venture capital firm, is aiming to raise $150 million for its fourth fund, which will focus on longer-term crypto investments.&nbsp;
The fundraising started a month ago, as reported by Fortune. If successful, this fund would be the firm’s largest, surpassing the amounts raised by its first three funds of $25.5 million, $130 million, and $100 million, respectively.
CMT Digital, a subsidiary of CMT Group has a track record of investing in over 150 prominent crypto companies like Circle, Coinbase, and ConsenSys, with a successful history in the crypto and blockchain space since 2018.

Gerald Brant, the Head of Capital Formation, who previously held the same position at BlockTower Capital and Pantera Capital, is leading the fundraising efforts.
Sam Hallene, an investment partner shared the company’s approach for the fourth fund with Fortune. He said the firm is focusing on investing in companies with visions that could take three to seven years to come to fruition.
Hallene highlighted that the latest innovation wave is focusing on decentralized physical infrastructure, including “application-specific hardware” like permanent file storage or internet provision.&nbsp;
Furthermore, Hallene mentioned that the company is intrigued by <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/stablecoin-market-cap-hits-161b-amid-eight-month-growth-streak/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">stablecoins</a> due to their applications in worldwide remittances and as tokens that generate yields.
