This is exactly the vertical we’re backing. We’re a fund built inside one of the largest DeFi platforms in crypto, @ether_fi. We invest in founders building the rails for crypto’s mass adoption: payments, neobanks, FX, cards. We write $500K–$1M checks, but honestly, capital is the smallest part of what we offer. What our founders can actually get access to: - 70K+ active cardholders, $1B+ annual volume - 300K+ users we can put your product in front of - $5B+ in one of the largest LRTs on Ethereum - $500M in liquid vaults for RWAs & liquidity Our team has built and scaled real consumer businesses, so we help with distribution and GTM, not just intros. We move fast, give honest feedback, and don’t disappear after the wire. If you’re building here, come say hi. DMs open.
