Real-World Assets

RockawayX

Check: No Ryan-specific venture check range is public. For RockawayX's Catapult program, the firm says it writes first checks into RWA-yield founders and can add anchor TVL, liquidity, DeFi integrations and mentorship; founders should ask directly about round-specific sizing.

Ryan looks for crypto investments where differentiated, alpha-generative research reveals something the consensus has missed and where tokens or equities can be underwritten with traction and fundamentals. At RockawayX he invests around yield onchain, DeFi and RWA infrastructure while retaining a contrarian interest in experimental consumer finance and entertainment-finance products that can become sticky, high-margin categories.

Greenfield Capital

Check: No personal check-size range is published. Greenfield's venture mandate spans pre-seed through later stages; financing amounts in Felix's investment essays are company-round totals, not personal limits.

Felix uses research and market data to identify durable crypto infrastructure and distinguish fundamental adoption from speculation. His work favors protocols with measurable usage, revenue or value accrual; secure programmable ownership; credible governance; and infrastructure that connects decentralized finance with institutional and real-world assets.

Eterna Capital

Check: $250K–$1M indicated by current investor directories, with roughly $500K described as a sweet spot. Eterna's own live site confirms a global, early-stage mandate but does not publish a check range, so founders should verify current size, reserves, instrument and lead appetite directly. Eterna has publicly co-led at least one pre-seed round (Stoffel Labs).

Nassim invests where decentralized protocols, programmable value layers and AI-native infrastructure converge to reshape the internet. His work connects crypto's ownership and market primitives to broad economic utility: tokenization and stablecoins that improve access and liquidity, privacy-preserving computation that makes sensitive applications possible, authenticated data for AI and blockchain, and technical infrastructure capable of moving from inception through real products, sustainable business models and network-effect communities.

Lattice Fund

Check: $250K–$1M from pre-seed through Series A, per Lattice's current official approach page. The firm says it invests globally, makes fast independent decisions and seeks non-consensus companies at their earliest stages.

Mike backs infrastructure, networks and applications that make money, markets and scarce resources more open. He originated Lattice's 2022 Token-Incentivized Physical Infrastructure Networks thesis and has since applied it to distributed energy, bandwidth, mobility and data. His broader lens favors open-source coordination, useful demand and real economic flows over closed networks or reflexive token speculation.

Blockchain Capital

Check: No personal or venture-partner check range is published. Blockchain Capital's announced financing rounds and Tare's seed round are transaction sizes, not a reliable proxy for Lucas's individual authority.

Lucas specializes in rebuilding credit and capital markets on shared blockchain infrastructure. His operating record points to tokenized funds, real-world assets, institutional DeFi, and end-to-end lending systems that reduce reconciliation and intermediary costs. He emphasizes that tokenization alone is insufficient: assets need credible legal and operational structures, actual buyer demand, liquidity, and composable market infrastructure for lending and trading.

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.

Shorooq Partners

Check: Shorooq invests across the equity journey from pre-seed through late-stage growth, but neither the firm nor Kunal publishes his personal check range or decision authority. Portfolio round totals are not treated as check-size evidence.

Kunal supports Shorooq's fintech and web3 practice with an operator's perspective across the UK, UAE, and Africa. His remit fits the firm's founder-first strategy: backing regional companies from idea through scale and global frontier companies where technology modernizes financial access, payments, wealth, business operations, or digital ownership. Shorooq's blockchain thesis favors crypto augmenting existing consumer behavior and solving real-world problems rather than replacing useful behavior with complexity.

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.

ether.fi Ventures

Check: $500K–$1M, from a current public ether.fi Ventures fundraising statement. The live site positions Fund I at pre-seed through Series A and publishes ventures@ether.fi. Confirm allocation, instrument, ownership target and whether the fund will lead; the current site says $20M committed capital while the April 2025 launch post described $40M, so fund-size headlines should not be used to infer check capacity.

David backs technical, early-stage teams at the intersection of finance, AI and crypto that pair crypto-native properties with real adoption. His clearest current thesis is a two-layer build: first achieve web2-grade safety, recourse, fraud prevention and consumer experience; then use composability, programmable money, non-custodial ownership, transparency and global 24/7 access to deliver step-change utility. He favors strategic partnerships where ether.fi's users, liquidity, validator capacity and distribution materially improve a company's odds—not passive capital alone.

CoinFund

Check: Personal check size is not publicly disclosed. CoinFund invests from pre-seed through Series A and in liquid digital assets across multiple strategies.

Evan applies fundamental-investing discipline to both venture and liquid crypto: identify the metrics that genuinely drive an asset, forecast them, define thesis-invalidation points in advance, and pressure-test assumptions through an authentic external network. He looks beyond equity-style valuation heuristics to community, network effects, token demand, distribution, and the new product surface enabled by open onchain economies.

Inception Capital

Check: Inception does not publish a David-specific check range on its live site. A 2026 interview described an $80M platform split between a $50M venture fund and $30M fund-of-funds, but vehicle size is not personal check size. Founders should ask directly about current round, ownership and reserve fit.

David runs a dual strategy: direct early-stage venture investments and backing emerging fund managers, sometimes through management-company or GP stakes. His edge is an East-West network connecting U.S. innovation and institutional capital with Asian adoption, builders and liquidity. He favors globally trained founders, emerging-market financial infrastructure and long-duration themes such as stablecoins, tokenization, automated finance and the intersection of AI and Web3.

Haun Ventures

Check: No reliable Chris-specific ticket range is public. Haun invests from seed through scale and announced $1 billion of new early- and later-stage capital in May 2026; round evidence includes leading or co-leading seed, Series A and an $82M growth financing, but round size is not the same as Haun's check.

Chris backs community-led and crypto-enabled businesses where open technology creates a durable advantage and a credible business model. His work focuses on the infrastructure of globally programmable finance—stablecoin payments and FX, secure blockspace, onchain real-world assets, business accounts, custody and long-duration Bitcoin products—while testing whether governance, monetization and scale mechanics actually fit the product.
