Polymorphic Capital
Check: 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.
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, particularly social, payments, finance, data and AI. Her independent research lens maps entire technology stacks and searches for the bottleneck or value-capture layer—such as training data, packaging capacity, safety certification, integration, agent payment rails or the software/hardware split—while distinguishing headline market sizes from more reliable directional signals.
Managing Partner
gumi Cryptos Capital
Check: A December 2019 gCC FAQ said the firm typically wrote $250K–$1M checks. Treat this only as a dated historical range, not a current promise: gCC subsequently raised a $110M Fund II and has not published an updated range on its current site. Confirm stage, instrument, ownership and reserves directly.
Rui leads an early-stage, crypto-native firm with a builder-centric, long-time-preference and high-conviction approach. gCC invests across the blockchain stack, with particular application interest in financial services and gaming and broader interest in foundational protocols that use blockchain for a significant competitive advantage. Rui's gaming, VR/AR, social-network and founder background supports a product and global expansion lens.
