Alliance DAO portfolio: 191 companies, $3.5M average round

By NAUT Research · · 10 min read

191 Alliance DAO portfolio companies on NAUT, 137 rounds through its accelerator, read 12 November 2026. Logos: Phantom, Boba Network, Avail, 0G, Clipper, Pump.fun, Caldera, Dinari, Zerion, Solflare, Debridge, Rain.

NAUT tracks 191 companies in the Alliance DAO portfolio, each with at least 1 funding round backed by the firm on NAUT's record as of 12 November 2026. Across the 199 of those 200 rounds that carry an amount, the average round is $3.47M, and 137 of the 200 are Accelerator rounds.

Data note. Counted on 12 November 2026 from NAUT's own database: every non-archived company row tied to a round where NAUT records Alliance DAO as a backer. NAUT holds the firm under 1 investor row. 2 of the linked rows are investor firms, so they are left out, which leaves 191 companies and 200 rounds. 184 of the 191 have a public NAUT page and are linked below; the other 7 are Accelerator companies with no page yet, so they are counted and left unnamed. Amounts are the size of the whole round as NAUT stores it, since the firm's own cheque is rarely disclosed. Where a company has 2 rounds, the tables show the larger one. Written by NAUT Research.

The firm is a crypto accelerator, and its own site calls itself "the world's most selective accelerator & founder community." It uses the name Alliance, and NAUT files it as Alliance DAO.

Which companies has Alliance DAO backed?

The table ranks the largest Alliance DAO rounds by the round size NAUT stores, keeping the ones an outside report confirmed for this page. Each of those reports confirms the amount and names Alliance as a backer.

Size Company Round · date
$109M Series B Round · Jan 2022 †
$45M Series A · Apr 2022
$43M Series A · Jun 2024
$35M Pre-Seed Round · Mar 2024
$21M Equity Round · Jul 2021

† NAUT stores no date for this round; the date is from The Block.

The 8 largest rounds were checked and 3 did not hold up: the outside check did not tie Alliance to the rounds NAUT stores for DATA Network ($25M), Chaos Labs ($20M) and Efinity ($18.9M), so those 3 stay in NAUT's count and carry a flag in the full table below. The reports on Phantom and Clipper name DeFi Alliance as the backer, and NAUT files both under the same Alliance DAO row. The other 183 companies were not put to an outside check for this page.

Alliance DAO portfolio companies outside the accelerator

54 companies have an Alliance DAO round on NAUT and no Accelerator round, and 2 more (Zerion and hyperlink_xyz) carry both kinds. These 56 rows hold the seed, Series A and private rounds, and each links to a NAUT page, where the team and other backers show when NAUT holds them.
