Invested
Early-stage crypto investing inside a major VC house tends to get buried under generalist deal flow. Lightspeed Faction is the dedicated web3 arm of Lightspeed Venture Partners, focused on backing crypto-native founders at seed and early stages across DeFi, infrastructure, and consumer applications. The backing of a top-tier global franchise gives it access to deep networks and follow-on capacity that standalone crypto funds rarely match.
