If Mythos is as bad as Anthropic claims, @mathematics_inc becomes one of the most valuable co in tech
Math's built the best Math Foundation Model which allows them to automate software proofs so bugs (& therefore hacks) become logically impossible
Generational bet proving out!
The Hack VC Founders Hotline has been live for over 3 weeks now. Some stats to share:
- We’ve received 243 submissions
- We’ve responded to every single one of them (if you submitted before 4/27)
- We are diligencing 18%
- We asked to schedule calls with 10%
Thanks everyone for all the awesome submissions!
If you are building something cool, hit us up on our hotline (link below). We are actively monitoring and will get back to you within 1 week.
We’re thrilled to see @pharos_network launch its mainnet today with 50+ apps already live.
We were proud to lead the seed round when this exceptional team spun out of Ant Group to build a blockchain specifically engineered for real-world financial use cases and enterprise adoption.
Big congrats to @wishlonger@HZ7102 and team! Here's a peak into our investment thesis 👇
Let's grab a coffee in Miami next week?
Join us, @tectonicxyz, @0G_labs and other builders next Thursday, May 7th from 9-11AM at @consensus2026
Register at the link in the thread ☕️
I’m incredibly proud to share that we’ve officially come out of stealth with a successful fundraise.
This moment is about far more than capital, it’s the official launch of our mission to build the essential safety infrastructure for the agentic economy.
For too long, autonomous AI agents have operated in a dangerous gray zone: powerful creativity with no reliable guardrails when real economic value is at stake. Today, we change that.
Nava’s Arbiter provides rigorous, verifiable verification, ensuring every agent proposal is checked for intent alignment, safety, correctness, and adversarial risks before any capital moves onchain. No more black boxes. No more “trust me, bro.” Just transparent, accountable execution.
With this funding, we’re accelerating from early demos to production-grade infrastructure that institutions and builders can actually trust. We’re moving beyond experimental DeFi agents toward a future of safe, scalable, institutional-grade autonomous finance.
The agentic economy is no longer coming, it’s here. Our job is to make sure it’s built on a foundation of verifiable safety from day one.
Huge thanks to our investors for believing in this vision. To the builders and institutions out there: the private testnet waitlist is open.
Let’s build the trusted layer for autonomous agents, together.
The best is yet to come.

If Saylor hadn’t been hopeless and on the verge of bk he wouldn’t have bought BTC
If Kanye hadn’t crashed out he couldn’t redeem himself
If Trump hadn’t been deplatformed and shot at he wouldn’t have won
The world can take away your youth. Your success. Your access.
It can cancel you. Bankrupt you. Destroy your health. Or even try to kill you. It can seem hopeless
But if you can wake up. You can keep going and fight. It’s not “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”
It’s that when you’re stripped down to nothing you truly understand what it means to leave nothing on the table. You can go to a brink that other people can’t fathom.
The truth is the world is cruel and it crushes a lot of people. And when you do get up it means something to the people who were left behind and couldn’t manage it
Deep down we want to live in a world where redemption is possible. And that belief is fuel when you decide to draw a line in the sand and keep going.
Trump is doing so much crime in office he’s got to pardon everyone. Kanye is still insane. Saylor is running increasingly complex and strange financial games.
It’s not morality that keeps people engaged with these men. And it’s not what makes them great. It’s that - so many ppl were in the same place as they were at their lows - and at some basic level we want to believe it’s possible to still win without the blessing of the machine that destroyed us
And it is. It’s not pretty and it’s not the same the second time. You do things you’d never have considered before. What you lack in energy and optimism you make up for in the simple brutality of having seen the depths and come back
So see it clearly and don’t flinch from it. Both can be true. Redemption is possible. And when you rise again you won’t recognize yourself
@RealAlex We mostly focus on infra but across many categories. One of the earliest in crypto x ai, DeFi, DeFi x CeFi areas like stablecoinization and tokenization, fintech, depin, and sci fi technologies like privacy, quantum, cryptographic verification.
The shift in the crypto fundraising landscape the past 6 months has been insane.
Crypto VCs used to have to constantly be networking/writing/podcasting/going on spaces/promoting your thesis/getting on 10 deal flow calls a week, to get into good deals...now it's literally enough to just have capital to write checks.
Deals are being pushed rather than dug out. Inbound if people know you have money is at an all-time high.
Most firms are either 1) Out of money 2) Moved to Series A and beyond or 3) Fundraising (with no success).
Deals that used to close in 2-3 weeks now close in 2-3 months.
Firms with questionable business models or copy pasta of the latest trend are getting zero primary or follow-on funding (Good news!).
There are now realistically <20 firms writing checks in pre-seed/seed.
VCs basically have the pick of any deal they want, with more time to do DD.
IMHO 25/26 are going to be historic vintages for those who stick around.
Thrilled to announce the $44M Series A to scale the onchain economy ⚓
Backed by Sumitomo Corporation's CVC arm, @snzholding, @chainlink, @FlowTraders, and some of the undisclosed giants in global finance 🏛️
Pharos is building the financial-grade infrastructure to bridge TradFi and DeFi at a global scale 🌐
UMA x Predict
UMA has entered a strategic partnership to power automated market resolutions for @predictdotfun on @BNBCHAIN, bringing battle-tested infrastructure to every market on their platform.
Great to see our partner @0xRodney take the stage at @HKVCPEA!
He discussed the evolution of stablecoins and why the payments landscape in Asia remains one of the most compelling categories in the market right now. 📈
