Investment thesis
HIC pursues absolute returns in Web3 and decentralised AI by combining early-stage venture investments with active liquid strategies such as staking, liquidity provision, coretime, DePIN, and AI agents. The firm emphasizes an infrastructure-first mindset, focusing on foundational protocols and enabling technologies where real usage and economic value emerge rather than hype-driven applications. Built on a strong track record in the Polkadot ecosystem, HIC is expanding into high-conviction opportunities across other leading Web3 networks, aiming to capture both venture-stage growth and consistent yield within the same high-value themes positioned at the convergence of Web3 and AI.
