Greenfield CapitalCheck size: 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.
Research-backed theses, measurable on-chain adoption, durable usage and revenue, strong token or protocol economics, secure infrastructure with ecosystem leverage, teams respected by both crypto-native and traditional institutions, and governance designs that can survive growth and decentralization.
No personal pass list is public. His research suggests weaker fit for valuation stories driven only by beta or narrative, tokens without credible value accrual, governance that concentrates unaccountable control, infrastructure without usage evidence, and RWA or institutional products lacking security, compliance, or ecosystem integration.
Bring data, not only narrative: active users, transaction quality, TVL composition, fees and revenue, retention, unit or token economics, governance distribution, security history, and value-accrual logic. Explain the counterfactual, why the protocol becomes critical infrastructure, and which evidence would falsify your thesis.
Separate broad crypto-market beta from protocol-specific valuation signals such as TVL, fees, revenue, accrual quality, usage, and their stability across market regimes.
Measure secured value, integrations, users, developer reliance, switching costs, security record, and ecosystem breadth to determine whether a protocol is becoming a standard rather than a feature.
Map proposal rights, voting power, delegation, treasury control, upgrades, participation, capture risks, and the credible path from founding-team control to resilient governance.
Evaluate legal enforceability, asset origination, underwriting, servicing, compliance, liquidity, on-chain transparency, and distribution across both DeFi and traditional institutions.
A research-led opportunity map identifies unsolved problems across infrastructure, DeFi, consumer crypto, and regulation rather than relying on point predictions.
Secure smart-account infrastructure can become a Web3 standard and strategic aggregation layer when broad ecosystem adoption compounds its position.
RWA infrastructure is compelling when technical efficiency, differentiated services, team reputation, and relationships across DeFi and traditional finance reinforce one another.
Public blockchains require privacy-native solutions that preserve useful transparency while protecting personal and institutional confidentiality.
