Investment thesis
PetRock Capital invests in breakthrough blockchain and Web 3.0 technologies, from foundational infrastructure to unorthodox, experimental concepts. The firm takes an active, hands-on investment approach, aiming to deliver concrete value to the projects it backs. It developed early conviction in the crypto space during a period of widespread skepticism, and its stated vision is to become the Asia Pacific region's leading blockchain fund by maximizing value creation. The name references Mark Cuban's remark that he would take a Pet Rock over Bitcoin, reframed as a reminder that unconventional ideas can go on to reshape the world.
