Frequently asked questions

Which blockchain ecosystems does Paper Ventures focus on?

Ethereum and its scaling layers dominate the portfolio — roughly half of disclosed investments are EigenLayer-adjacent restaking or ZK-verification protocols. Solana, TON, Avalanche, and Bitcoin also appear through allocations to Rakurai, TAC, XSY, and Utexo respectively. The firm does not concentrate on a single Layer 1.

Does Paper Ventures participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?

Public records show only direct seed-stage equity and token investments. There are no disclosed fund-of-funds commitments or LP positions in other venture firms.

Who makes investment decisions at Paper Ventures?

Paper Ventures has not publicly identified its investment committee or named any managing partners. This opacity is not uncommon for seed-stage crypto firms, but it means an allocator cannot independently assess the tenure or track record of the decision-makers without a direct conversation.
