Early Stage Startups
Explore our approach to investing in early stage startups.
We strongly believe that groundbreaking innovations often originate from early stage projects and visionary entrepreneurs. We are active scouting for potential game changers in their earliest stages. These activities provide us with direct access to cutting edge developments and ideas emerging in the startup landscape. Through this hands on approach, we have honed our ability to identify exceptional individuals and teams with the potential to reshape the financial landscape, much like the pioneers who laid the groundwork for today's DeFi ecosystem​.
From $10K to $10M
This infographic showcases a hypothetical journey of a $10K investment growing to $10M through DEFILP’s strategic DeFi funding approach, breaking down the process and highlighting where our investment value lies.
Description of the Infographic
The infographic illustrates a hypothetical scenario where a $10K investment in DEFILP grows to $10M by targeting high-potential startups, often called unicorns—startups valued at over $1B. While unicorns are exceptional, DEFILP’s strategy makes them more attainable. It begins with the Alpha Fund investing $10K in USDC into the XYZ startup. The startup achieves a 1000x return through market adoption and technological success, transforming the initial $10K into $10M. The value stems from DEFILP’s focus on early-stage projects with exponential growth potential, systematically identifying and nurturing these high-impact opportunities.
Extensive Network of Contacts
Over the years, we have established relationships with numerous industry professionals, including developers, entrepreneurs, and degens. These connections provide us with unique insights into emerging projects and potential investment opportunities, giving DeFiLP Fund an edge in the competitive DeFi landscape.
Collaboration with Industry Groups & Syndication Partnerships
We are active members of various DeFi and blockchain focused groups, where we engage in discussions, share ideas, and stay informed about the latest trends and developments. This active participation enables us to stay abreast of industry news and quickly identify projects with strong potential.
Utilizing AI for Analysis
We use AI driven research and custom algorithms to enhance our investment decision making. Staying ahead in the fast paced world of DeFi requires a deep understanding of market trends and the ability to anticipate where the industry is heading. We regularly analyze market data, track technology advancements, and monitor regulatory changes to ensure we can identify and invest in early stage projects with the highest potential for growth.
Collaboration with Incubators and Accelerators
To further enhance our ability to discover promising early stage projects, we collaborate with leading blockchain and DeFi focused incubators and accelerators. These partnerships provide us with access to a pipeline of innovative startups and a platform to support their growth and development.
Hacker House
We spearhead innovation through our distinctive Hacker House. Aimed at nurturing the next wave of innovators, this program provides a dynamic ecosystem for budding developers and startups to evolve their promising projects into market ready solutions.
Structured around a 90 day immersive experience, our Hacker House serves as an innovation crucible, combining intense online hackathons and global pop up events. These hackathons are the entry point to our journey, offering a continuous 24/7, alongside weekend events that span across the globe, fostering a rich breeding ground for revolutionary ideas.
Teams that demonstrate exceptional potential are invited to elevate their Minimum Viable Product "MVP" to a production ready level through our Hacker House Program. Here, participants are not just working together they live together building 24/7, to ensure a focus on development without distractions. This unique setup is coupled with a pre-seed funding offer of $10,000 laying the groundwork for their venture. Upon reaching production readiness, we further assist in securing a seed funding round.
Our approach extends beyond our own hackathons. By collaborating with other hackathon organizers, we widen our search for talent, ensuring diverse and innovative projects can benefit from our program. This strategy not only benefits the participants by providing them with unparalleled support and resources but also positions our fund to make early investments in the future of AGI and ASI.
The Hacker House Incubation Program is more than an accelerator it's a commitment to the future of finance, ensuring the brightest minds in DeFi have the resources, guidance, and environment they need to succeed.

These partnerships afford us an advantageous perspective, allowing us to pinpoint and nurture high-potential projects from their outset. Our keen focus extends beyond the DeFi horizon, embracing the rapidly evolving AI landscape to identify groundbreaking projects poised for significant returns.
