Investment thesis

CoinFund is a cryptonative venture capital and liquid investments firm founded in 2015 that champions the leaders of the new internet through decentralized technology. The firm's core thesis rests on three pillars: foresight through deep technological understanding, an active builder mentality, and professional institutional investing. CoinFund believes the most impactful innovations come from entrepreneurs who understand decentralization at a foundational level and are willing to push boundaries across the full lifecycle of blockchain networks—from pre-launch through post-token network effects. The firm positions itself as both investor and active participant, combining equity and liquid token positions while offering operational, technical, and network expertise to portfolio companies. With approximately $1 billion in AUM across 6+ investment vehicles, CoinFund deploys capital from pre-seed through Series A and into liquid cryptocurrency markets, focusing on decentralized AI, onchain finance and infrastructure, blockchain infrastructure, and consumer applications. As Jake Brukhman stated at founding: 'I have come to the conclusion that this is a rapidly growing space with the potential to change the world with next-generation technology.'

Notable quotes

Almost everyone universally has under-appreciated the size of the market opportunity for web3. It's open source, it's open competition — when we make this transition to web3 rails, it will be very hard to compete against for any web2 or other business model.

Our leaders are company builders themselves, and we want to enable our founders to develop long-lasting, sustainable, fundamentally valuable businesses.
