The thing is you can't treat those two deals like they are the new norm which is what has been happening in the bitcoin community with all the posts about "on track for a $1b year".
Once you subtract those two 'unicorns' we have ~$30m in investments for q1. If you extrapolate that out(which we really can't since we have no idea which way the trend is going but we will because) we end up with all other deals for 2015 raising about the same as 21 inc.
Realistically we have to wait a few more months to see where things are going but I think people in /r/bitcoin are definitely playing off the comment too easily. It's not like buttercoin didn't have a lot of connections with investors to poll for information on their beliefs.
