Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Delphi Ventures is most relevant for founders raising Pre-Seed and Seed rounds in Blockchain Crypto, AI/ML, Gaming, and Creator Economy, especially across United States and Global.

Focus statement

Delphi targets crypto + deep tech: infrastructure and modular blockchain primitives (rollups, data availability, sovereign app-chains), AI and robotics (including brain-computer interfaces), gaming and onchain economies, finance/infrastructure, and NFTs & social — supporting founders building trustless, composable, and monetizable open-source systems.

Value Add

Deep crypto heritage: “Forged in the fires of crypto, Delphi helped write the playbook for an entirely new class of founder that leveraged open source, composable primitives to rapidly innovate.”
Research-led, cross-disciplinary approach: operates as a broader “hivemind” that navigates technology from researcher, builder, and investor perspectives.
Thought leadership and standards advocacy: authors technical blog posts and frameworks (e.g., advocating SoDA — Statement of Digital Assets — for better crypto reporting) and invests in ecosystem tooling (disclosed investment in Integral).
Focus on sovereignty and correct primitives: explicit thesis favoring modular blockchain architectures and rollups for “sovereignty” and scalable data availability rather than one-size-fits-all blockchains.
Product & go-to-market sensibility in crypto contexts: investments in onchain gaming (e.g., Gunzilla/Off The Grid) that emphasise seamless onboarding and real revenue models tied to onchain minting/validators.
Operational signal and deal access tooling: public mention of an AI analyst (“Bob”) that “leverages custom-built infrastructure to synthesise key information and get you in front of us sooner.”
Large and broad portfolio footprint: "almost 200 teams" across categories, indicating extensive network effects and follow-on capability.
