9 VCs and 1 funds investing in Zero Knowledge
Co-Founder & General Partner
Eterna Capital
Check: $250K–$1M indicated by current investor directories, with roughly $500K described as a sweet spot. Eterna's own live site confirms a global, early-stage mandate but does not publish a check range, so founders should verify current size, reserves, instrument and lead appetite directly. Eterna has publicly co-led at least one pre-seed round (Stoffel Labs).
Nassim invests where decentralized protocols, programmable value layers and AI-native infrastructure converge to reshape the internet. His work connects crypto's ownership and market primitives to broad economic utility: tokenization and stablecoins that improve access and liquidity, privacy-preserving computation that makes sensitive applications possible, authenticated data for AI and blockchain, and technical infrastructure capable of moving from inception through real products, sustainable business models and network-effect communities.
Sr. Investment Research Associate
HashKey Capital
Check: No reliable personal check range or individual signing authority is public. Jin Ming Neo is a research associate, so founders should treat HashKey Capital's fund strategy—not a directory estimate—as the relevant context and confirm stage, allocation, lead role, ownership, token/equity structure, and decision process with the investment team.
Jin Ming Neo contributes to broad, research-led sector evaluation across Web3. HashKey's coauthored 1H 2024 analysis favors teams with defined technical advantages, credible go-to-market, or proven execution; AI and DePIN infrastructure with real demand; sustainable Bitcoin utility; institution-grade trading, staking, lending, stablecoin, and derivatives infrastructure; and products that solve ecosystem maturity, adoption, liquidity, or user-experience constraints.
Junior Partner
Pantera Capital
Check: No person-specific check size is publicly disclosed. Pantera's published venture strategy typically spans Seed through Series B and aims to lead or co-lead; Joey's own mandate is DeFi and infrastructure rather than a stated ticket size.
Joey treats blockchain as a permissionless, composable technology stack for programming value and human behavior—not merely a digital copy of traditional finance. He is looking for institutional DeFi stacks, novel market structures and Web3 infrastructure primitives with tangible use cases, especially net-new experiences that change user behavior.
