3/ On oil's appeal, Ethereal Ventures' Christian St. Louis: "deep, liquid and... very much in the spotlight given recent geopolitical events", noting oil contracts on Hyperliquid clear "well over a billion per day." Read the full story ⬇️ sandmark.com/news/top-news/…

Crypto privacy might become one of the BIGGEST trades of this cycle. Institutions want to move trillions onchain. They literally can't do it on fully transparent blockchains. Imagine your bank's entire balance sheet visible to the whole world. Not happening. That's why privacy infrastructure like ZK tech, Aztec, and Zcash are suddenly catching fire again.

April was an important stress test for how we think about security in DeFi. We believe DeFi’s application layer has matured faster than its control plane, and share our perspectives and recommendations on the topic here: etherealvc.substack.com/p/defi-doesnt-…

We're happy to present our 2026 outlook. This year is already taking shape, and the opportunity space for founders is even wider than anticipated. If you're building in any of these areas, we would love to talk to you. etherealvc.substack.com/p/the-opportun…

Proud to see the @etherealvc team recognized here- thoughtful, principled, and deeply aligned with the long-term evolution of the decentralized web. Excited for what we’re building together and for the platform’s next chapter.

Building @etherealvc with this dream team (@ethereumJoseph @sean_sacha @bees_neeth @obstropolos @christian_stlou @GNSPS) and our community of exceptional founders has been the biggest privilege of my life. We're doubling down on crypto and the evolution of money and value onto blockchains, during the most exciting transition of the internet. h/t to @jeffjohnroberts for the feature and happy star wars day!

The world of crypto investing hasn’t been so hot of late, but Ethereal cofounder @_MinTeo says the company has been able to hold its own thanks to its niche expertise and its founder-friendly focus. bit.ly/3QM2ipE
