Blockchain Capital co-investors: 117 backers, Polychain on 8

117 Blockchain Capital co-investors backers on 38 of the fund's 40 round records on NAUT, read 13 November 2026. Logos: Blockchain Capital, Polychain Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Delphi Digital, CoinFund, Maven 11 Capital, Placeholder Ventures, The Spartan Group, 1confirmation, 1kx, Figment Capital, Slow Ventures.

NAUT tracks 117 Blockchain Capital co-investors: 109 firms and 8 individual angels who sit on at least 1 of the 38 Blockchain Capital round records that carry a co-backer, announced between March 2017 and November 2026. Polychain Capital invests alongside Blockchain Capital most often, on 8 of those round records, followed by Coinbase Ventures and Delphi Digital on 7 each.

How this was counted: on 13 November 2026, NAUT's data shows 40 round records in the Blockchain Capital portfolio, under Blockchain Capital's NAUT page, across 34 companies. 38 of them list at least 1 other backer on NAUT's record, and those 38 hold 211 co-backer entries that resolve to 117 distinct investor pages. An archived duplicate Blockchain Capital row is merged into the main page and adds no rounds. 9 of the 40 records carry no announce date on NAUT, so the window runs from the dated ones. NAUT stores no lead flag on any co-investor entry here, so this list says who joined a round, never who led it. NAUT holds 3 round records for Celestia and 4 for Allora Network, so a firm in those deals can count 2 or 3 times; the Cos column counts each company once. 10 outside claims about 7 of the named firms were put to sources, 7 came back confirmed and the 3 that did not are left out.

Which Blockchain Capital co-investors share the most rounds?

Polychain Capital does, on 8 shared round records across 7 companies. The table ranks the 12 co-investors on 4 or more shared round records, ranked by shared rounds, ties in alphabetical order.

10 more share 3 round records each: Alameda Research, Bain Capital Crypto, Dialectic Capital, Framework Ventures, Galaxy Digital (Ventures), Jump Crypto, Mechanism Capital, NFX, Pantera Capital and The LAO. Below them, 24 share 2 records and 71 share 1, so 46 of the 117 overlap more than once.

Ranked by companies instead of round records, the order changes at the top: Polychain Capital on 7, Coinbase Ventures on 6, then 1kx on 4. Delphi Digital's 7 records sit at 3 companies, because 6 of them are Celestia and Allora Network records.

Read Alameda Research's row as history. It was a crypto trading firm founded in 2017 by Sam Bankman-Fried and Tara Mac Aulay, and it filed for Chapter 11 in November 2022 after the FTX collapse. Balaji Srinivasan is an individual investor, listed on NAUT as an investor page.
