#1Nataly Laktionova

Marketing, Portfolio Development

Polymorphic Capital

Nataly's Polymorphic work sits at the application and portfolio-development edge: finding and supporting products that use web3 infrastructure to transform markets beyond crypto-native users, particul

No Nataly-specific check size is public. Polymorphic's verified OpenVC-style profile lists firm-level initial bands spanning $250K–$3M, says it can lead, and covers pre-seed through Series B. Treat these as firm guidance rather than Nataly's authority; confirm the relevant partner, current allocation, stage and ownership target after intake.

Managing Partner

Union Square Ventures (USV)

Rebecca invests at the edge of large markets, with a consumer and product lens sharpened by USV's network-effects thesis. Her current view links abundant AI intelligence, cheaper hardware, sensors, an

USV publishes a firm-wide check range of $1 million to $30 million and invests from the earliest stages through follow-ons. It does not publish Rebecca's individual authority, and the partnership makes decisions collectively without a vote.

Investor

No Limit Holdings

Brian invests in early-stage blockchain infrastructure and crypto-native businesses where a protocol or token can coordinate a real resource, market or financial rail. His recent work looks beyond def

No Brian-specific or official current check range is public. NLH Fund II is positioned to lead early-stage native-crypto investments, and the firm's disclosed portfolio spans pre-seed, seed, strategic and Series A rounds. Round totals are not personal check sizes; founders should ask Brian or the firm about current sizing and instrument.

Former Investor, Symbolic Capital; Founding GTM, PrismaX

Symbolic Capital

Chad's historical investment work mapped decentralized AI across data, models, agents, compute, training and inference. His current operator thesis narrows to physical AI's deployment bottleneck: foun

No current investor check size applies: Chad says he left early-stage investing to build at PrismaX. Historical third-party estimates for Symbolic must not be treated as current personal authority. Financing pitches should go to Symbolic's live team; robotics commercial proposals should be framed for PrismaX.

Firm-wide: Big Pi publishes €0.5M–€30M equity tickets across early-stage and growth funds; its dedicated Growth I strategy leads €7M–€20M+ investments. The site does not publish Nick's personal range, so stage and fund fit must be confirmed per opportunity.

Growth-fund level: Big Pi Growth I states that it leads with €7M–€20M+ per company. Panos focuses on Series B+ growth investments; the published fund range is not a guarantee of his personal allocation authority for any deal.
