Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Metaversal Ventures, Inc. (operating as Metaversal) is a Web3-native investment firm and venture studio focused on non-fungible tokens and related digital assets. The company describes itself as a modern merchant bank for the digital culture economy, offering financial products built around digital assets, including blue-chip NFTs and tokenized computing power aimed at the AI sector. It both invests in startups and directly acquires NFTs, reporting a portfolio of more than 750 NFTs, and it incubates, produces and curates intellectual property across the NFT ecosystem.

Alongside its investing activity, Metaversal builds products in-house.

Founding story

The company was founded in 2021 by Daniel Schmerin and Yossi Hasson, and was incorporated in Florida as a foreign for-profit corporation on September 16, 2021.

Business model

Metaversal combines a balance-sheet investment strategy — acquiring NFTs and taking seed and early-stage positions in startups — with a venture studio that incubates and produces its own products and IP. It also engages in B2B partnerships with businesses seeking credit solutions or capital in the digital culture economy.

Reported revenue sources center on facilitating digital-asset transactions and providing liquidity and yield opportunities, including transaction fees on NFT buying and selling and subscription-based access to proprietary financial products, with pricing tailored by client type.

Traction

The firm reports an NFT portfolio of more than 750 assets and an employee count of 34, with a separate listing giving a company size range of 15-50.

Latest developments

Its Florida registration was revoked for annual report on September 26, 2025 and reinstated on October 10, 2025. The firm's stated plans for the Series A proceeds include further acquisitions of iconic NFTs, underwriting businesses supporting the open metaverse, expanding venture studio projects and launching new products.
