5 VCs and 2 funds investing in Risk Management
Asset Manager
Hashed
Check: Not applicable as a disclosed personal venture check range. Jake is publicly listed as an Asset Manager. Route startup fundraising to Hashed's investment team unless the firm confirms his participation in a specific venture process.
Jake analyzes crypto assets through market structure, user demand, transparency and risk. He sees decentralized lending as a technically differentiated response to opaque custodial failures, while recognizing smart-contract, rate and maturity risks. His memecoin analysis separates price formation and community coordination from fundamental utility and argues that durable crypto value requires restoring balance between speculative energy and technological progress.
Partner, General Counsel
Kleiner Perkins
Check: No Jesse-specific startup check size or allocation authority is public. His documented mandate is legal oversight for Kleiner Perkins and its portfolio companies. Founders seeking financing should contact an investing partner.
Jesse's role is to manage legal risk and enable transactions for Kleiner Perkins and its portfolio. His background spans venture capital financings, M&A, corporate and securities work, litigation and technology-company compliance. The relevant lens is whether governance, ownership, intellectual property, privacy, contracts, employment and regulatory posture are clean enough to support investment and scale—not a personal sector thesis.
Partner
ParaFi Capital
Check: No personal venture check range is disclosed. Kevin leads quantitative strategies and technology development inside a multi-strategy manager spanning public and private markets; founders should not infer a standard venture ticket or sole decision authority from the Partner title.
Kevin approaches digital assets as both a quantitative portfolio manager and a systems builder. His remit joins non-directional and fundamental market strategies with production technology, while his public discussions cover stablecoin risk, institutional adoption and the engineering of blockchain infrastructure. The through-line is measurable market behavior, robust implementation and portfolio construction rather than a venture-only mandate.
Investor
Electric Capital
Check: Not applicable as a disclosed personal venture check range. Electric's current biography says Sanjay focuses on liquid crypto portfolio management, trading and DeFi strategies. The firm's public $1M–$15M+ venture range should not be attributed to his liquid-market role.
Sanjay's stated remit is liquid crypto portfolio management across trading and DeFi strategies. His combination of consulting, company-building and graduate technical/business training suggests an operator-aware approach to market opportunity, execution and risk, but Electric has not published a more granular personal thesis or list of venture investments.
