I see some interest from alt venture capital funds in taking part in ICOs, thereby implicitly using bitcoin and others as investment currency. Other the other hand, ICOs actually take business away from VCs, since they get no equity for their capital in return, so its tricky for them to enter without affecting their own business model. Direct investment stakes in bitcoin or other altcoins using the traditional VC model are still quite rare, due to its volatility for both parties.  ;)

Yeah business is business. Ofcourse we can't deny the fact business will adapt different kind of ways on how grow fast and realiable. In every move they make it has to be effect on their business whether beneficiary or not. It is not impossible for them to invest even in volatility of the value of both of them.

there are too many venture capitals joined to ICOs and they are organisating their own ICOs too. money makes money.
