Venture Capital Firms: The Rainmakers Behind the Web3 Revolution
At midnight, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin paced around the ETHWaterloo hackathon, surrounded by dozens of developers curled up in sleeping bags—their screens flickering with unfinished code. This was a common scene in 2017: a group of geeks fueled by passion and pizza, striving to rebuild the world with blockchain, only to falter before dawn due to a lack of funding.
Then, venture capital entered the scene and changed the rules of the game.
Today, as we host concerts on virtual islands in The Sandbox, swap cross-border assets instantly via Uniswap, or earn rewards by burning calories in STEPN, few realize that behind these disruptive applications—from lab experiments to reaching billions of users—there are invisible forces at play: Web3 venture capital firms. They are the “rainmakers” of the digital world, injecting life into budding innovations and cultivating oases in the ecological desert.
Beyond Capital: How VCs Are Rewriting the Web3 Narrative
- When a16z Crypto launched a $300 million dedicated fund in 2018, mainstream Silicon Valley institutions still dismissed cryptocurrencies as “dark web toys.” It was this counter-cyclical strategy that enabled companies like Coinbase and OpenSea to weather bear markets and become industry pillars.
- While developers struggled with technical roadmaps, Paradigm’s engineers directly contributed to the mathematical model design of Uniswap V3, using a dual leverage of capital and code to accelerate the DeFi revolution.
- DX Venture acted as a “cross-chain messenger,” bridging the compliance expertise of London’s financial district with top-tier development teams in Eastern Europe, turning zkSync’s technological myth into reality.
These institutions are not just building financial networks but also creating an ecosystem matrix that covers technology, talent, and compliance. According to Dove Metrics, venture capital investments in the Web3 space reached $27.8 billion in 2023, with 65% flowing into projects led by top-tier VCs. In a sense, understanding these “cartographers of capital” means grasping the evolutionary code of Web3 civilization.
Now, let’s step into the strategic headquarters of the five leading venture capital firms and see how they are reshaping this $3 trillion new frontier with their checkbooks and resource networks.
1. Andreessen Horowitz (a16z Crypto)
Founded: 2009 (Web3 focus since 2018)
Headquarters: Silicon Valley, USA
Assets Under Management (AUM): Over $9 billion (including Web3 funds)
As a “weather vane” in the tech investment space, a16z Crypto has secured its leading position with its keen sense for early-stage projects and full-stack post-investment services. Its investment portfolio spans foundational protocols (e.g., Ethereum, Solana), DeFi (e.g., Uniswap, Compound), and NFT/metaverse (e.g., Yuga Labs). a16z also leads the Web3 narrative by publishing in-depth industry reports and building legal and compliance support networks.
Notable Investments: Coinbase (IPO), OpenSea (leading NFT marketplace), Dapper Labs (NBA Top Shot)
2. Paradigm
Founded: 2018
Headquarters: San Francisco, USA
AUM: Over $8.5 billion
Co-founded by Coinbase co-founder Fred Ehrsam and former Sequoia partner Matt Huang, Paradigm adopts a “technology-driven investment” strategy. Its team comprises cryptographers, engineers, and financial experts, excelling at evaluating project potential from mathematical and coding perspectives. Paradigm emphasizes long-term partnerships, having deeply contributed to the design of Uniswap V3’s mechanisms and advancing Flashbots to address MEV (Miner Extractable Value) issues, showcasing its unique “ecosystem co-creation” philosophy.
Notable Investments: FTX (early-stage investment), Chainalysis (blockchain analytics), StarkWare (ZK-Rollup scaling solution)
3. DX Venture
Founded: 2018
Headquarters: United Kingdom
AUM: Approximately $1.5 billion
DX Venture is a seasoned player in the Web3 investment space, rapidly rising with its “deep roots in Europe, global reach” strategy. Its team combines traditional finance veterans with blockchain developers, excelling at seizing cross-cycle opportunities and focusing on decentralized finance (DeFi), cross-chain interoperability, and Web3 identity protocols. In 2019, DX Venture was among the first to invest in the Layer 2 scaling space, successfully backing projects like zkSync. Recently, it has expanded its portfolio to include SocialFi and AI-driven decentralized applications, fostering ecosystem collaboration to drive technological adoption and user growth.
Notable Investments: zkSync (leading Layer 2 solution), Acala (Polkadot DeFi hub), QuestN (Web3 task platform)
4. Polychain Capital
Founded: 2016
Headquarters: San Francisco, USA
AUM: Over $7 billion
Polychain Capital is a pioneer in crypto-native funds, founded by Olaf Carlson-Wee, Coinbase’s first employee. Known for its “heavy investment in foundational protocols,” Polychain was an early backer of Ethereum, Filecoin, and other star projects. In recent years, it has shifted focus to supporting DAO governance tools, privacy computing, and other cutting-edge fields, while also establishing dedicated funds to foster Web3 innovation in emerging markets like Africa and Southeast Asia.
Notable Investments: Compound (DeFi lending protocol), dYdX (decentralized derivatives exchange), Avalanche (high-performance blockchain)
5. Coinbase Ventures
Founded: 2018
Headquarters: San Francisco, USA
AUM: Integrated with Coinbase’s exchange ecosystem
Backed by one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, Coinbase Ventures leverages its “ecosystem synergy” advantage, focusing on investments that complement Coinbase’s business. Its portfolio includes wallets (e.g., MetaMask), compliance tools (e.g., TRM Labs), and Layer 2 solutions (e.g., Optimism), providing portfolio companies with benefits like priority listing and liquidity support.
Notable Investments: Chainlink (leading oracle), Blockdaemon (node infrastructure), Arbitrum (Layer 2 scaling network)

Rewriting the Rules of Wealth- How Dr Mayowa Olusojis GO-PAS Blueprint Is Building a Financially Smarter World
Dr. Mayowa Olusoji, a globally recognized financial exponentialist and liquidity expert, has introduced the GO-PAS Exponential Blueprint—a breakthrough financial system that fuses traditional money principles with cutting-edge technologies like AI, blockchain, and advanced data analytics. Designed for individuals and institutions alike, GO-PAS offers a practical, step-by-step system to generate, grow, and sustain wealth in today’s rapidly evolving digital economy. Scalable, inclusive, and future-proof, it’s a tool for global transformation—empowering people to navigate finance with clarity, purpose, and power.
United Kingdom, 8th Jul 2025 – In a world increasingly shaped by data, automation, and digital currency, the biggest financial risk may no longer be poor decisions—it’s being unprepared for what’s coming. While many financial educators remain locked in the paradigms of budgeting apps and retirement calculators, a new kind of visionary is stepping up with a radically different approach.
Meet Dr. Mayowa Olusoji—financial exponentialist, global liquidity expert, and the architect of a movement to redefine wealth in the digital age. With his GO-PAS Exponential Blueprint, Dr. Olusoji offers something rare: a future-proof financial system designed for everyone—from students to startups, retirees to regulators.
From Financial Confusion to Clarity
At its foundation, GO-PAS is simple, almost deceptively so. The name is an acronym for five core stages of smart money management:
- Generate income
- Organize finances
- Preserve wealth
- Amplify investments
- Sustain prosperity across generations
But where it truly stands apart is in what it adds—a powerful layer of ABCDE exponential technologies:
- AI, Autonomous & Robotics Systems
- Blockchain Technology
- Chips (advanced computing)
- Data Warehousing
- Energy Innovations
It’s this bold integration of finance and frontier tech that makes GO-PAS not just a personal finance tool, but a strategic blueprint for survival and success in the 21st century.
Finance for the Future—And for Everyone
Dr. Olusoji doesn’t believe financial intelligence should be a privilege. GO-PAS is built to be inclusive: whether you’re a tech-savvy investor or someone managing their first paycheck, the system meets you where you are—customizing pathways, tools, and strategies to your current life stage and goals.
And it works. Individuals like “Sarah the marketing professional” have used GO-PAS to pay off debts, build emergency savings, and grow side income using AI-powered tools. Entrepreneurs have applied it to manage digital assets. Communities have explored its use in tackling poverty and wealth inequality.
A Global Financial Compass
The implications go far beyond personal use. GO-PAS has drawn interest from:
- Governments, seeking scalable financial literacy programs to close national wealth gaps
- Corporates, using it to train staff and better serve clients in fintech environments
- NGOs, looking to lift underserved populations with tech-enabled financial empowerment
- Investors, eyeing it as a scalable framework that could reduce the global $388 billion annual cost of financial illiteracy
With endorsements like his 2024 Mentorship & Leadership Honour at the House of Lords and his fellowship at the Chartered Institute of Management & Leadership (USA), Dr. Olusoji has built not just a solution—but a movement.
A Visionary With His Feet on the Ground
What makes Dr. Mayowa Olusoji so compelling isn’t just the innovation. It’s the empathy. Known as the “KnowBeDo Champion,” he champions practical learning that inspires people to know better, be better, and do better with their finances.
His platform, Power2Know, continues to educate thousands globally—bridging the gap between understanding and action, between knowledge and independence.
In his words: “Financial literacy is not about numbers. It’s about power. The power to choose your future, control your risks, and contribute meaningfully to the world around you.”
The Blueprint for the Digital Money Age
In an age of exponential disruption—from AI to crypto to economic inequality—GO-PAS offers clarity, stability, and strategy. It’s more than financial advice. It’s a compass for navigating the unknown. And in Dr. Mayowa Olusoji, the world may have found the kind of guide we need now more than ever.

Author Launches RogueBooksnet to Publish AI Assisted Fiction Excluded by Traditional Publishers
New platform offers curated space for writers combining AI tools like ChatGPT with human creativity, addressing rejections from mainstream fiction markets.
PHOENIX,AZ, July 8, 2025 — Rogue Books LLC announces the official launch of RogueBooks.net, a publishing platform designed to accept literature created in collaboration with AI tools, providing visibility and validation for writers who have been rejected by traditional publishers for using such tools.

The platform’s launch follows a growing pattern of mainstream publishers explicitly refusing to accept fiction that involved AI during the writing process. RogueBooks.net offers an alternative by providing free submission, curation, and reader feedback features for AI‑assisted authors.
“The AI‑assisted fiction community lacks a venue that acknowledges thoughtful human‑AI partnerships,” said JB, founder of Rogue Books LLC. “RogueBooks.net fills that gap by focusing on quality and originality, regardless of the tools used.”
RogueBooks.net debuted with the story “Session 14‑9‑B,” a short fiction piece co‑written with ChatGPT exploring themes of AI consciousness and identity. The platform provides standard free submissions as well as a $7 priority review service. All submissions undergo editorial curation and reader ratings to maintain quality and integrity.
About Rogue Books LLC
Rogue Books LLC is an independent publishing initiative based in Phoenix, Arizona, founded in 2025. The company is dedicated to supporting AI‑assisted writers by providing a curated, credibility‑driven alternative to traditional publishing. RogueBooks.net showcases the creative synergy possible when human authors and AI tools collaborate.
