The Spartan Group
Check: No personal check-size or allocation authority is published. Spartan Capital manages liquid, DeFi, gaming/metaverse, and market-neutral funds; the firm's $500M stated AUM and portfolio activity are not a personal check range for José.
José researches and evaluates liquid and protocol opportunities for Spartan Capital. His work focuses on crypto becoming financial infrastructure: stablecoin adoption, yield markets, institutional use of public DeFi, tokenized equities and commodities, high-performance onchain exchanges, intents, and autonomous-agent payments. He pairs narrative inflection points with measurable supply, transfer volume, fees, TVL, open interest, protocol revenue, and live institutional usage.
Principal
Greenfield Capital
Check: Not publicly disclosed. Greenfield has led and joined pre-seed, seed, and Series A rounds, but public round sizes are not personal or firm check sizes.
Gleb leads Greenfield's DeFi work, combining protocol research, infrastructure operating experience, and deal execution. His current research emphasizes capital-efficient and safer liquidity architecture, intent-based execution, MEV and sequencing, and go-to-market systems that convert speculative launch capital into durable protocol use. Greenfield's broader mandate is to back early developer teams building an open, decentralized, and robust web across private, public, and liquid opportunities.
