Lookout's read
How Lookout reads this fund.
The grandfather of crypto VC, with a 2013 vintage and exits (Coinbase, Kraken) that print returns most funds only dream of. Franchise gravity makes them a default lead for serious rounds. Less visibly AI-forward than newer shops — the edge is brand, not narrative-chasing.
Fund thesis
What they back.
Back entrepreneurs and protocols across the full blockchain stack — infrastructure, DeFi and gaming — as one of the longest-running crypto-dedicated venture franchises.
