造纸风险投资计划

前扑克专业人士、Ascential Assets 联合创始人 Blakey 在一份声明中表示：“Paper Ventures 的使命是走在创新的最前沿，培育突破性的想法，重新定义技术和金融的界限。

我们相信区块链的变革力量，并致力于支持那些像我们一样对其潜力充满热情的人。”

自 2010 年以来，创始人经历了多个市场周期，一直是 Frax Finance、SEI、Polygon、Injective、Polkadot、Moonbeam 和 Cosmos 等目前占主导地位的项目的早期支持者。

他们的产品组合还扩展到了 gameFi 项目，例如 Merit Circle/Beam、Illuvium 和 YGG。

拥有传统金融背景的乔杜里在一份声明中表示：“通过 Paper Ventures，我很高兴能够投资突破性的想法，并利用我的经验来提升这些想法背后的聪明才智，培育一个协作生态系统，推动创新前所未有的高度。”

在 Blackrock，Chaudhry 曾在英国欧洲股票团队工作多年（当时管理着近 5000 亿美元的资产），他还帮助建立了在其名为 Aladdin 的专有平台中使用的许多风险模型。

在他几次退出（他创立的初创公司）之后，他在 2018/2019 年创立并推出了 Bitcoin.com 交易所，随后更名为 fmfw.io，用户数量从零增长到 150 万。很短的一段时间。

Jordanov, an entrepreneur and founding member of Altitude.fi and Deadalus Collective, rounds out the trio of founders. The Paper Ventures team collectively shares a commitment to empower visionary entrepreneurs, catalyze disruptive technologies, and contribute to the next wave of impactful change.

Jordanov is a decentralized finance native at heart. Previously, he was a partner at 7percent Ventures, a London fund with a focus on deep tech. He is also on the founding team of the DeFi protocol Altitude.fi and one of the founders of the Deadalus Collective, a blockchain native collective that has backed and supported many of the protocols in the market today.

In an email to GamesBeat, the partners said they are investing in games and have done a deal which hasn’t been announced yet. But that is not their sole focus.

They said they are looking at all sectors because they want to catch preseed opportunities everywhere and not be pigeonholed. As for the timing, they said, “We are still at the early stages of the industry, which presents large, asymmetric opportunities and as experienced investors and contributors to the space we are well positioned to capture them and generate strong returns while helping to propel the industry forward.”

I asked if the sector had been over-invested in. They replied there aren’t a lot of seed stage funds right now that are founder first.

“Most funds are too large, having to write large checks which are not always advantageous to founders just setting out, or are more focused to realizing the return on their investments from years ago,” they said. “So we are filling a gap where pre seed seed stage funding needs to be less about writing a check to follow on to please LP’s and make fees but more about helping founders build a business from the outset”.

They added, “And, yes, it may seem that seed preseed has been over invested for the past few years; however most funds that went that route are now just looking to harvest. Leaving, as above, an obvious gap in the funding landscape.”

The three founders have operated in this space since as early as 2010, having been through multiple cycles. Now they are combining their efforts. They have worked with and funded at seed/early stage some of the most prominent projects. To name a few, their investments include Frax Finance, SEI, YGG, Polygon / Matic, Injective, Polkadot, Cosmos, Merit Circle/Beam, Illuvium, Wintermute, Gensyn and Morpho.
