About us

About us

We work across the full crypto value spectrum — supporting founders from incubation and pre-seed all the way to strategic participation in liquid and secondary markets.


We invest across stages with flexible check sizes depending on our involvement and value-add — from early venture to strategic liquidity.


We don’t just bring capital, but also context and community - including deep builder experience, proven relationships, and resources from building Polygon’s ecosystem and community from 0 to 1.

Why us

Why us
