Peter Pan

@pet3rpan_

Peter is a Partner at 1kx, where he invests in early-stage crypto companies and token networks. He seeks out founders focused on the net new and, at times, the non-obvious, rather than incremental improvements to existing markets. He is most excited about category creation and companies that structurally reinvent markets from the ground up. His investment focus centers on the application layer, particularly consumer applications, marketplaces and developer platforms. Some ideas he is especially excited about right now include new forms of user acquisition and consumer distribution, novel applications for capital formation, and verifiable knowledge graphs for an attributable information economy. If you’re working on something that feels “off meta” to most other investors, don’t be afraid to reach out — there’s a chance he’ll get just as excited about it as you are.
