Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Haun Ventures is most relevant for founders raising Seed, Series A, and Series B rounds in Blockchain Crypto, Fintech, Payments, and AI/ML, especially across United States and Global.

Focus statement

We invest "at the frontier of money, markets, assets," backing teams reshaping money, payments, banking, capital markets and identity—including stablecoins, payment infrastructure, and decentralized finance—and support both crypto-native and non-crypto visionaries using decentralized technology as a backbone for fintech, AI, and consumer platforms.

Value Add

  • Founder- and operator-led team with deep regulatory and policy credibility (founder Katie Haun is a former federal prosecutor, DOJ digital currency task force lead, and Coinbase independent director).
  • Explicit emphasis on regulatory sophistication and mainstream/institutional reach (bridging innovation and policy): "We bridge the gap between radical innovation and the worlds of global tech, finance and policy."
  • High-conviction, selective investing rather than "spray and pray": "We don't spray and pray. We invest with conviction and intentionally partner with only a select group of founders each year."
  • Sector focus on foundational financial infrastructure (stablecoins, payment rails, bank tech, capital markets) with portfolio examples including banks and infrastructure companies (e.g., Erebor, Bridge).
  • Operational depth and hands-on support from builders, policy experts, and operators who have scaled companies in high-stakes environments.
  • Willingness to invest across stages (seed to scale) and to support regulated, institution-facing infrastructure (e.g., backing an OCC‑chartered bank).
