Prophetic Ventures

Founder Aaryaman Vir leads investment decisions. Vir is a repeat founder — he previously built Elemential Labs, a blockchain infrastructure company, and co-founded the web3 studio Tigerfeathers. Co-founder Jehan Karanjia is also associated with Equatorius Capital, though the firm's day-to-day investment posture appears tightly held by Vir.

Sourcing runs through Vir's network at iSPIRT, the Indian Software Product Industry Round Table, where he serves as a volunteer. iSPIRT is the architect behind India Stack, UPI, and ONDC — national-scale digital infrastructure. This gives the firm privileged early visibility into startups building on or around India's public digital rails. A private Discord community provides a secondary scouting layer among aligned operators and investors.

The firm runs both. Prophetic Ventures takes seed-stage equity positions in early-stage companies, particularly in enterprise software and fintech, while also managing a liquid-token book that includes Solana ecosystem exposure, Bitcoin, and positions in Mudrex. This dual-structure approach means the firm evaluates protocol-level opportunities as investable assets alongside traditional equity.

Founder Aaryaman Vir volunteers at iSPIRT, the influential policy think tank that architected India's digital public infrastructure — including Aadhaar, UPI, and the Open Network for Digital Commerce. This is a professional affiliation, not an investment vehicle. The connection provides the firm with technical and regulatory insight into India's digital infrastructure stack, which anchors part of its investment thesis.

The equity portfolio concentrates on India-based companies, though many target global markets. The liquid digital-asset book is inherently global — Solana, Bitcoin, and other protocol positions have no single-country domicile. The firm's investment lens is Indian, but its liquid capital operates without geographic constraint.
