Disruptive technology
requires disruptive investors
CoinFund is actively shaping the global transition to digital assets and decentralization technology.
CoinFund is an investment firm founded in 2015 and based in Brooklyn, New York. We invest in venture and liquid opportunities within the blockchain sector with a focus on digital assets, decentralization technologies, and their key enabling infrastructure.
We have studied and supported the development of the blockchain space from the inception of the first decentralized networks. Our multidisciplinary team brings together expertise in investing, engineering, law and decentralized protocols. Together, our team has over 30 years of blockchain investing experience.
OUR TEAM
Our passion, intimate knowledge of some of the world’s largest tech stacks, and a long history of angel investing shows through our multidisciplinary approach, and draws from a 25+ year collective track record of investing in the crypto ecosystem. The team also brings 28+ years in traditional investing as well as backgrounds in law, computer science and finance. The power of crypto and traditional investing together has not only helped us navigate multiple bear/bull regimes but has allowed us to capitalize on the resulting technological evolutions.
