The crypto industry has many veterans who are building in this community, including those in the Haun Ventures portfolio. It is a privilege to work with them and we're are grateful for their service! 🇺🇸
Chris Ahn spoke to Axios about the significance of Stripe's acquisition of Haun Ventures portfolio company Bridge: 👉 "If you look at the traditional financial rails, Stripe is one of the many layers a dollar has to move through to process a payment," says Haun Ventures partner Chris Ahn. "Crypto allows them to own more of that stack or skip parts of that stack." (Haun Ventures invested in Bridge's Series A round.) 👉 "Where Bridge was serving was at this intersection of cross-border payments, real-time payments and micro-payments," says Ahn.https://lnkd.in/gGktB9G2

There's a lot of talk about the ways in which crypto can enable something in AI. At TOKEN2049, Diogo Mónica explained that we are actually seeing many use cases where it is the other way around— AI is enabling something in crypto (as is the case with Haun portfolio team Chaos Labs).

We’ve been supporters of Solana since the launch of Haun Ventures. This year, when speaking to teams building on Solana—whether building a social app, a DePIN protocol, or a DeFi protocol—one common infrastructure provider always came up: Helius. Today, we're proud to announce we're leading a $21.75M round of financing in Helius. We’re excited to support the Helius team in their mission to accelerate developer adoption of crypto.

Diogo Mónica spoke to Axios about transitioning from crypto founder to crypto VC. Some highlights: 👉 It's been amazing to talk to founders and say: "Hey, I know what you are suffering through. I know what it looks like every two years to have 80% of your revenue go away like clockwork." 👉 Building a company in crypto is being a founder in hard mode. It's already insane, you know, "chewing glass and staring into abyss." But it's a harder version of the abyss, a darker version of the abyss. 👉 I've been doing [deals] for a long time. Personally, I have over 150 angel investments. I feel like I was playing mini golf, but now I'm playing golf. Technically, the mechanics are the same: There's a ball and a club, but it's a very different sport. More here 🔗 : https://lnkd.in/gE4VEgVG
Today we announced that we're backing Bridge, an entirely new payments platform, built with stablecoins, to simplify global money movement. Payments has long been a promised use case for blockchains. Stablecoins, combined with cheap and fast blockchains, are fulfilling this promise and growing quickly. Stablecoins especially shine for international payments, where the speed and cost benefits vs. fiat transfers can be significant. However, stablecoins remain difficult to use for most businesses because operating across fiat and multiple blockchains creates complexity that make it difficult for businesses to deeply integrate and take advantage of this technology. You can read more about how Bridge abstracts away this complexity with easy to use APIs that businesses like SpaceX, Bitso, and DolarApp are already using in the Fortune story below. https://lnkd.in/gDFzqD7i
Exclusive: Coinbase and Square vets aim to level up stablecoins with Bridge and $58 million in funding fortune.com
