How is that in the US right now though? Years ago there was a wacky startup of the week on HN raising X amount of funds, nowadays it feels like there's... nothing. Or it's just underreported on HN. Or the billions that funded a hundred startups have all gone down the AI drain.

I acted as a technical advisor on a raise in Q2 2025 and saw figures from the EI Market Research Centre that Q1 Series As & Bs totalled ~$35 BN USD vs ~€4.5 for the EU as a bloc, so very roughly an order of magnitude greater. 2025 was considered a mid year for US VC capital deployment but a good year for the EU.
