Investment thesis

Stateless Ventures operates as a full-stack venture firm investing across every stage of a startup's life, concentrating on the convergence of AI, crypto, and web3. It deploys capital through multiple strategies, including liquid open-market positions, traditional venture, and opportunistic SPVs, and invests as a principal alongside its limited partners to maintain alignment. The firm seeks startups with highly asymmetric risk-reward profiles, often backing ideas that initially appear unconventional, and aims to identify where talented builders are focusing their efforts outside of work. Believing the future is 'stateless,' it invests in protocols and the infrastructure underpinning that future.
