Investment thesis
Plassa Capital backs founders at the earliest stages who are rebuilding the financial system from first principles. The firm focuses on the crypto ecosystem across four areas: DeFi and financial rails offering permissionless access to capital, lending, and trading; physical infrastructure such as decentralized energy networks and real-world asset protocols; TradFi infrastructure including regulated exchanges and institutional rails; and AI and consumer applications. It emphasizes multi-year conviction over chasing market cycles, writes first checks at pre-seed and seed based on conviction rather than traction, and embeds portfolio companies in a network of builders, exchanges, protocols, and institutions.
