This is a deceptive graph that attenpts to show that it's good to raise a large 12+ million dollar seed. The dumb thing about this is that it's self fulfilling. If you raised a 100 million dollar seed at a 1B valuation, then you have a 100 percent chance of reaching 1B valuation.
8 we are ourselves unicorn-builders by nature so we add value to early stage projects. If you're stuck in a ditch, we will get out of the car and push.
We at
@GumiCryptos
are builder and founder centric. We love founders and the journey of entrepreneurship. All of us have done it and understand its ups and downs.
🔒 Your passwords are already for sale! The dark web is a marketplace where hackers trade YOUR private info, from passwords to personal data. It's time we address this and explore how Web3 can offer a safer digital future.

We have received reports of phishing attacks using a fake domain similar to ours. Our true website and domain are please do verify that carefully and beware emails coming from similar looking but different variations.
6 We also like the asymmetry in "Your Passion, Our Conviction" because we supply energy, financial, emotional and temporal, but the entrepreneur is ultimately the creator of the structure, the builder of the future.
If you're building a network effect, we recommend The Cold Start Problem by
@andrewchen
admittedly kind of an obvious recommendation, but obvious because it's very good.
3 Also, we place your passion first. This is the correct subordination of VC which is a service role to the entrepreneur which is the creative force within the relationship.
10 Having invested our Fund I into the crypto winter of 2018-2019 we wanted our tagline to include the word "Conviction" because we feel that this word characterizes us well.
4 We place a lot of emphasis and value on entrepreneurial passion, and we understand passion not only to be a deeply stirring and ungovernable feeling...
13 please do bear in mind that we are an EARLY-STAGE investor and that we are a VENTURE investor, so we are looking for opportunities to support projects with large market opportunities, network effects and significant competitive advantage and moat.
1 VCs are not evil, we are just predatory
I've noticed a huge gap between entrepreneurs and VCs lately. Obvoiusly the bear market and waning runways are increasing the gap between sky high ambition and grounded execution this is well understood. 🧵👇👇👇👇👇👇

7 We see the entrepreneur's job as building "software that people want to use" and we want to find the Olympic-level champions of this who can identify new disruptive opportunities.
@0xsitaram
it's very much the best as with all VCs to get a referral from people within our network, particularly other portfolio founders. If you want you can also find contact info at but this is a more noisy channel.
8 The greatest opportunities involve solving deep pains in the market, not just for today's Nash equilibria, but to predict the structure of the market in the future and to serve that future.
