We started by backing crypto and digital assets. We are now wider than that. We like infrastructure and the tools others build on more than single end-products. We back capital-efficient teams that do real work on little money. We want strong, honest founders and real proof: a shipped product, a paying customer, a signed contract, flight heritage, revenue, or a government award. We favor US founders but look at strong teams anywhere. We avoid copycats and pure derivatives.
Cast the net wide. If you are close to one of the areas below, reach out anyway. We would rather read a pitch that is not a fit than miss you.
- Exchanges and trading venues, marketplaces, wallets, payments and stablecoins, infrastructure and developer tooling, token-launch platforms, decentralized and centralized apps, and DeFi. How we look at crypto.
- Exchanges and trading venues, marketplaces, prediction markets and the tools around them, sports-betting software, prop-firm and funded-account models, and token-launch platforms. How we look at exchanges, marketplaces and prediction markets.
- AI agents and agent tooling, payments and sandboxes and escrow for agents, inference and compute infrastructure, and applied AI with a real wedge. How we look at AI.
- Drones and unmanned systems, counter-drone, propulsion and turbine technology, defense materials and components, and dual-use sensing and autonomy. We look at this sector and have been meeting founders in it. How we look at defense.
- Orbital compute and data, satellite subsystems and components, radiation shielding, optical comms and precision timing, and sensing payloads. How we look at aerospace and space.
- Actuators and motors, perception and simulation tooling, grippers and tactile sensing, and manufacturing and components for robot builders. We look at this as picks and shovels. How we look at robotics.
- Fintech, payments and banking. Payment and payout rails, brokerage and trading infrastructure, treasury and back-office tools, neobank models, insurance and credit platforms.
- Neurotech, medtech and health tools. Wearables and bioelectronics, bioprocess sensors and instruments, cleared medical devices, and health software. We back tools and instruments more than drug development.
- Hardware, climate, mining, industrial and energy. Deep-tech hardware, assay and extraction hardware, industrial sensing, and coastal and climate hardware.
- Gaming and marketplaces. On-chain games and play economies, and marketplaces across any of the above.
- Consumer. Consumer AI and creator platforms, and food and other consumer brands where there is a real edge.
We call ourselves industry agnostic. If your company does not fit a box above but has the shape we back, still reach out.
One shape repeats across every sector. Infrastructure and picks and shovels, the tools and rails others build on, over single end-products. Capital-efficient teams that do real work on little money. Strong, honest founders. Real proof over a promise of what could exist. We favor US founders and look at strong teams anywhere. We avoid copycats and pure derivatives, and we do our homework.
Pre-seed and seed. We are comfortable being early, including the first institutional check.
$100,000 to $500,000.
Typically no. We follow and co-invest alongside a lead. A round that already has a lead and still has room fits us best.
Both descriptions fit. We are an early-stage angel/venture investor.
Crypto and digital assets, exchanges, marketplaces and prediction markets, frontier AI, defense, aerospace and space, and robotics, plus fintech, neurotech and medtech, hardware and climate, gaming, and consumer. We are industry agnostic.
Yes. Crypto is where we started and is still a large part of what we do, but we also back AI, defense, aerospace, robotics, hardware and more.
New York and Miami.
We favor US founders, but we look at strong teams anywhere.
Yes. We invest at pre-seed and seed, so we are used to being early. We still want real proof of execution, which can be a prototype, a pilot, a signed contract, flight heritage, or an award.

Copycats and pure derivatives with no edge. We also fit best when the round still has room, since we write small early checks.
