Kyros Ventures is the investment arm of Coin68 Media, Vietnam's leading cryptocurrency entity, and serves as the gateway for international cryptocurrency projects to enter the Vietnamese market. Founded in 2020, the firm specializes in incubating and investing in early-stage blockchain, gaming, DeFi, and infrastructure projects, leveraging Coin68's extensive partner and community network to provide portfolio companies with greater awareness and adoption across Vietnam and Southeast Asia. The firm applies strict valuation discipline — generally investing in projects with valuations under $10 million — and prioritizes founding team adaptability over credentials. Kyros sees itself not purely as a capital provider but as a connector, educator, and community builder, with roughly 40–50% of its portfolio focused on Vietnamese projects and a particular emphasis on blockchain gaming. Its goal is to become one of the leading investors in Vietnam and the broader South Asian region, driving industry development through investments and ecosystem building.
Notable quotes
“I have never thought of us purely as an investment fund. Our role is broader: we see ourselves as connectors, educators, and community builders. Of course, we provide capital, but our mission goes beyond that. We work closely with teams to ensure they succeed and in turn, their success drives Kyros forward as well.”
“The first principle is valuation discipline. In this industry, it is not unusual to see startups with zero revenue priced at $80–100 million simply because they have a high-profile adviser on board. Kyros takes a different approach. We generally invest in projects with valuations under $10 million, where there is genuine room for growth.”
“The main goal of Kyros Ventures is to leverage Coin68 to focus on early-stage investment projects and introduce them to the Vietnamese market, developing their communities and users in Vietnam. We are now partners for many projects in the Vietnamese and South Asian markets, and so far, Kyros Ventures has invested in over 100 projects.”
