Investment thesis

Rayo Capital Group invests at the intersection of venture capital, capital markets, and policy, supporting builders and institutions shaping onchain finance. Its thesis centers on three structural shifts: the tokenization of financial assets that brings equities, funds, and real-world assets onchain to unlock global access, liquidity, and programmable ownership; onchain financial infrastructure that lets capital move faster, transparently, and settle without intermediaries; and the evolution of digital asset policy needed for the system to scale responsibly. Through Rayo Ventures it backs pre-seed founders building infrastructure for next-generation financial markets, while Advisory and Community divisions support digital asset companies and ecosystems.

Cherubic Ventures

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
