Gaming

Binance Labs

Invests across the full web3 stack with a focus on infrastructure, DeFi, and gaming. Binance Labs serves as the venture capital and incubation arm of Binance, one of the largest crypto exchanges globally.

Pioneer in metaverse and spatial computing strategy. Focuses on the intersection of blockchain, virtual worlds, and immersive technology.

BNB Chain MVB (Central Asia)

Supporting blockchain innovation in Central Asia through BNB Chain's MVB program. Focused on growing the BNB Chain ecosystem in underserved markets.

ALPS Capital

Check: No current ALPS check size is publicly disclosed. Laura's September 2026 criteria specify Pre-Seed to Seed companies valued below $30M; that is a valuation ceiling and stage filter, not a stated check range.

Laura currently backs institution-grade financial-market infrastructure for digital assets and AI as TradFi moves onchain. Her stated targets include payments, stablecoins, clearing and settlement, trading infrastructure, custody-as-a-service, insurance, lending, and agentic identity or payments, with a shipped MVP, institutional proof, real technical or regulatory advantage and a credible enterprise acquisition path.

First Round Capital

Check: Not applicable to his current role: First Round states that Chris has made no new investments since becoming a Board Partner in 2019. Historical round or check data should not be used to imply current investment authority.

Chris is now a portfolio-support and board partner rather than an active new-investment partner. His historical investing centered on advertising and marketing technology, social and mobile products, ecommerce and travel, connected devices, and gaming. The through-line in his current work is relationship-driven company building: connecting founders to people, resources, partners, and advice that can help them go the distance.

1confirmation

Check: No personal check-size or allocation authority is published. 1confirmation describes itself as an early-stage venture fund; firm assets or round sizes should not be treated as Brett's personal range.

Brett focuses on crypto-native consumer products that bridge onchain ownership with mainstream culture. His published work looks for applications built around existing behaviors—playing games for money, collecting cards, following sports and culture, creating and trading media—where tokens, open markets, or verifiable ownership materially improve the product rather than merely decorate it.

Dragonfly

Infrastructure, DeFi, and crypto gaming. Clear thinking and good writing.

AppWorks

Check: Firm-level: AppWorks publishes a US$200K to US$15M per-deal range across Seed through Series C, with capacity to lead or follow and reserve capital for follow-ons. This is not Sophie's personal allocation range.

Sophie backs Asian founders applying AI to transformative products and organizational models. Her current work spans personalized AI, gaming, agentic systems, and AI-enabled work; her broader investment record also favors founders digitizing large Southeast Asian industries. Her public-market background informs a disciplined lens on balanced growth: product-market fit first, steadily improving margins, an explicit path to profitability, and evidence strong enough to resist FOMO.

AppWorks

Check: Firm-level: AppWorks publishes a US$200K to US$15M per-deal range across Seed through Series C, with capacity to lead or follow and reserve capital for follow-ons. This is not Ching's personal allocation range.

Ching backs global Web3 founders and infrastructure that can make decentralized systems useful, secure, and accessible at scale. Her work emphasizes founder vision, determination, domain expertise, and execution; practical user pain; transparent and non-custodial architecture; and businesses that earn trust through real adoption rather than token narratives alone.

HashKey Capital

Check: No reliable personal check range or individual signing authority is public. Jin Ming Neo is a research associate, so founders should treat HashKey Capital's fund strategy—not a directory estimate—as the relevant context and confirm stage, allocation, lead role, ownership, token/equity structure, and decision process with the investment team.

Jin Ming Neo contributes to broad, research-led sector evaluation across Web3. HashKey's coauthored 1H 2024 analysis favors teams with defined technical advantages, credible go-to-market, or proven execution; AI and DePIN infrastructure with real demand; sustainable Bitcoin utility; institution-grade trading, staking, lending, stablecoin, and derivatives infrastructure; and products that solve ecosystem maturity, adoption, liquidity, or user-experience constraints.

Lightspeed Faction

Check: No personal check-size range is published. Faction invests at Seed and Series A using equity and tokens; its fund commitments and disclosed financing totals should not be interpreted as Samuel's standard check.

Samuel backs early crypto infrastructure and protocols that make blockchain useful at scale. His public focus includes wallets, brokerages, developer tools, remittances, stablecoin and payment rails, and other foundational systems. He combines a long-duration belief in blockchain with a pragmatic demand for real utility, technically credible teams, and precise execution through volatile market cycles.

Maki.vc (Web3)

Check: Maki Fund III currently states €300K–€3M initial tickets in pre-seed and seed rounds below €5M, with follow-on reserves. This is the active firm's range, not Ilkka's personal or current new-deal authority; his stated remit focuses on existing portfolio companies.

Ilkka co-built Maki around entrepreneurial DNA, technical depth, non-consensus first-round decisions and Nordic founders with global category ambition. His documented portfolio work spans gaming, smartphone diagnostics, industrial ultrasound, simulation and glasses-free mixed reality—teams translating difficult science or engineering into a product with striking customer value. His current role is portfolio advisor rather than the lead for new investments.

OKX Ventures

OKX Ventures invests in blockchain infrastructure, DeFi, and Web3 globally. As the venture arm of OKX exchange, focuses on projects that advance the open and decentralized web.

Hashed

Check: No individual check range is disclosed. Dan is a Senior Associate on Hashed's investment and research team; published investment notes show thematic involvement but do not prove unilateral check authority or a standard ticket.

Dan looks for crypto infrastructure that removes adoption bottlenecks and connects on-chain systems to real economic activity. His investment writing favors ambient, developer-friendly infrastructure; sustainable market formation and price discovery; tokenization tied to productive assets and cash flows; and Asian consumer or emerging-market products where crypto improves an existing system rather than adding novelty for its own sake.

The Spartan Group

Spartan Group is a multi-strategy crypto fund based in Singapore, investing in DeFi, gaming, and infrastructure across Asia and globally. Known for advisory work and token launches.

Woodstock Fund

Check: Woodstock does not publish a personal check range for Prashanth on its site. Third-party databases estimate firm ranges, but those estimates and portfolio round sizes are not treated as evidence of his individual authority.

Prashanth works within Woodstock's research-led early- and growth-stage Web3 strategy. The firm's three lenses are convergence, financialisation, and virtualisation: interoperable infrastructure that links web3 with traditional and emerging technology; regulated, risk-managed financial rails that bring real users and sticky capital onchain; and gaming or creator experiences where virtual ownership improves the product. His institutional background is especially relevant to capital markets, regulation, risk, and the bridge between traditional finance and digital assets.

Sfermion

Check: Sfermion does not publish a first-party check-size range or Dan's individual authority. Public deal records show participation in seed and Series A rounds, but round totals and third-party estimates are not treated as his personal check size.

Dan co-leads Sfermion's investment strategy around the experiential internet: founders, companies, and digital assets that merge physical and digital life through web3, AI, AR, and VR. The firm's durable behavioral lens is creation, connection, and competition, with a portfolio orientation toward digital media, entertainment, games, creator infrastructure, and the systems that let communities own and exchange digital value.

Immutable Ventures

Built Immutable as the leading web3 gaming platform. Immutable Ventures invests in blockchain gaming and NFT infrastructure from Australia.

YGG is the largest blockchain gaming guild, pioneering the play-to-earn economy. YGG Ventures invests in gaming, metaverse, and the creator economy in web3.

CoinDCX Ventures

Check: $100K–$1M was the published CoinDCX Ventures range at launch in May 2022 for global Seed through Series A investments. The live firm page still confirms an early-stage global mandate but does not restate the range, so founders should verify the current ticket directly.

Rohit backs early-stage Web3 businesses where decentralization produces a materially better product—not blockchain for its own sake. He looks for valuable, sustainable companies and balances thesis conviction with execution, with particular emphasis on DeFi, exchange and order-book innovation, blockchain infrastructure, chain abstraction, and simpler user and developer journeys that can drive mass adoption.

AppWorks

Check: Firm-level: AppWorks publishes a US$200K to US$15M per-deal range across Seed through Series C, with capacity to lead or follow and reserve capital for follow-ons. This is not Jessica's personal allocation range.

Jessica invests across Southeast Asian consumer internet and blockchain, especially where deep technology improves a familiar consumer behavior or unlocks a regional distribution advantage. Her portfolio and writing emphasize strong user experience, scalable community or network effects, methodical technical execution, and go-to-market models that can start bottom-up before expanding into larger enterprise or regional relationships.

Check: Up to $250K in pre-seed and seed rounds, as published by Banana Capital.

Turner Novak invests or supports investments through Banana Capital's published strategy: Back resilient, obsessed founders with a non-obvious insight, defensible distribution, credible revenue prospects and category-defining ambition.

gumi Cryptos Capital

Check: gCC's older first-party FAQ stated typical $250K–$1M checks at friends-and-family through pre-Series A, occasionally Series A. Treat this as historical firm guidance—not Evans's personal or necessarily current range—and confirm Fund II sizing, lead appetite and structure directly.

Evans leads gCC's Asia strategy with a consumer-crypto and multi-chain background. His prior portfolio and current mandate point to high-conviction early-stage founders building foundational Web3 layers or applications where blockchain provides a meaningful competitive advantage, especially digital entertainment, consumer infrastructure, decentralized applications, middleware and cross-ecosystem products in Asia.

Khosla Ventures

Check: No personal check range is published. Khosla's Seed Fund supports technical and business-model experiments and may incubate companies; historical firm commentary described many seed investments around $1M–$2M. The Main Fund covers larger early and later rounds. These are firm-level references only.

Katie works at the company-formation boundary, incubating and backing early deep-tech and consumer ideas. Her experience spans satellites, AI research, consumer-company formation, entertainment partnerships, fundraising, recruiting, and product at Fei-Fei Li's Astrocade. That combination supports a thesis around technically novel products whose consumer behavior, narrative, team, and initial distribution can be designed together from day zero.

Hashed

Check: No verified personal or current Hashed check range is published on Tak's profile. Founders should confirm vehicle, stage, token/equity structure, geographic fit, lead appetite and reserves directly rather than using third-party estimates.

Tak brings a multilingual company-building and cross-border advisory lens to Hashed's crypto investment platform. His explicit remit is India and other emerging markets, making him most relevant to founders whose blockchain product solves a locally acute coordination, ownership, payments or access problem and can use regional distribution and ecosystem insight to grow beyond a single market.

Hashed

Check: No verified personal or current Hashed check range is published for Sean. Hashed invests its own resources from day zero through global scale, but vehicle, allocation, token/equity mix, ownership, reserves and Sean's role in a decision should be confirmed directly.

Sean's distinctive contribution is financial rigor inside Hashed's builder-led frontier-technology platform. His private-equity and non-marketable-securities valuation background is most relevant when a crypto or AI company must connect technical ambition to sound financing, valuation, governance, reporting, treasury and a durable institutional path. This is a role-derived lens, not a claimed personal investment thesis.

Hashed

Check: No personal check range is publicly disclosed. A 2022 Notifi investment note identifies a $2.5M pre-seed round led by Hashed, while the firm's 2021 Venture Fund II was $200M; neither figure should be treated as Baek's standard or current personal ticket.

Baek invests in infrastructure and applications that make decentralized systems useful to ordinary users. His writing connects mass adoption to better user experience, privacy-preserving computation, composable open finance, cross-chain communication and hands-on ecosystem building. He favors teams with deep technical foundations that can turn a missing protocol primitive into a broad platform and reach global scale from strong local communities.
