Cryptan Ventures

Cryptan Ventures invests and incubates world class projects developing technical and cultural breakthroughs for the future of technology and humanity.

Our Focus

Web 3

We believe that blockchain will transform the internet.   We are particularly excited by projects working with web 2.5 providing soft onboards into the world of blockchains, cryptocurrencies, and wallets through easy to use technologies and infrastructure.  Of particular industry focus is gaming, sports, entertainment, and music.  

Artificial Intelligence

We are extremely excited about the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and the opportunities it presents for investment.  AI is a rapidly growing field with numerous applications across a wide range of industries. From healthcare and finance to transportation and retail, AI has the potential to transform how businesses operate and create value. This means there is significant potential for returns on investment for those who get in early.

Emerging Tech

We are always on the lookout for emerging technologies that have the potential to create value and disrupt industries. This is why we are excited to invest in a wide range of emerging technologies, including space, infrastructure, smart cities, biotech, and more.  By supporting innovative companies that are driving technological change, we can help shape the future and make a positive impact on the world.

Our Focus

Digital Identity

We believe that each user on the decentralized web will have their own unique digital identity that they will want to curate, customize, and share. Unlike web2, these identities can be backed by hard evidence: a permanent, timestamped record of a person’s accomplishments, contributions, interests, and activities. This unique combination blends online personality with proof, and opens many exciting application possibilities.

Communication

The decentralized web has the power to bring privacy, verifiability, and security to direct messaging, communication, and community organization in ways that web2 never could. We see vast potential in the startups building the next wave of applications in this space.

Gaming

Web3 game economies offer a stark contrast to the traditional closed-system video games of the past. The incorporation of blockchain infrastructure in games has sparked massive adoption and insanely high retention rates in early web3 games. We believe this trend will continue, and are focused on investing in the underlying applications and opportunities within the space.

The Projects

Cryptan Ventures is publicly supporting these promising pre-seed companies.

Technology
NFTS Are Dead!
The next stage of NFTs, or NFT 2.0, will demonstrate that they can revolutionize our approach to every vertical of life – from marketing to ticketing and everything in between. As major brands continue to foray into the space, NFTs will serve as the onramp for traditional web2 consumers to enter the web3 space. By interacting with cryptocurrencies, utilizing decentralized autonomous organizations, and ultimately the playing and building in the metaverse; brands will continue to evolve and upgrade their presence in the space while driving consumer adoption and education. Ultimately NFTs will become a part of every day life on the internet, daily life with tickets and IDs, and so many more untapped technological opportunities.
