Polychain Capital is a research-driven investment firm focused on backing the foundational technologies of the decentralized web. Founded in 2016 by Olaf Carlson-Wee, Polychain pioneered crypto hedge fund strategies by investing in early-stage token networks, blockchain infrastructure, and cryptographic protocols.
The firm’s thesis centers on supporting protocol-layer innovations that power Web3—not short-term crypto apps. Polychain looks for projects with strong incentive design, novel consensus mechanisms, and the potential to reshape digital coordination and financial primitives. Its portfolio includes leading protocols like Ethereum, Tezos, Polkadot, Cosmos, and MakerDAO.
Supported by top-tier venture firms including Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, and Founders Fund, Polychain manages a mix of venture and hedge strategies with a global, long-term view of decentralized systems. Through disciplined research, high-conviction investing, and deep ecosystem involvement, Polychain aims to accelerate the growth of a secure, open, and programmable internet.
