NAUT tracks 217 Polychain Capital co-investors, the investor rows that share at least 1 of the 87 round records NAUT holds for the San Francisco fund, dated 26 October 2017 to 15 October 2026 and read on 14 November 2026. Coinbase Ventures shares the most, 12 of the 87 rounds, ahead of dao5 on 11 and Nomad Capital on 9, and 94 of the 217 share 2 or more.
Data as of 14 November 2026, counted from NAUT's own round records: the 87 rounds where Polychain Capital sits as a backer, across 70 companies. 58 of the 87 carry a date, and 2021 holds the most of them (14); 85 carry an amount, at a $14.5M median. A round counts once per backer, so a firm on 3 rounds of 1 company counts 3. The 217 are live investor rows only: 15 more backer rows that NAUT files as a project, platform or launchpad are left out, HashKey Group (8 rounds) and Animoca Brands (4) among them. Animoca also sits under Animoca Brands (Ventures), an investor row on the same 4 rounds, so the 2 rows together still cover 4. NAUT keeps a16z under 2 rows as well: a16z Frontier on 7 rounds and Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) on 2, 9 rounds between them; each is ranked as NAUT stores it. Wikipedia says Polychain "was founded in 2016" and is based in San Francisco (page). NAUT put 10 claims about Polychain and 8 of its co-investors to outside sources: 6 were confirmed, and for 4 (the shared rounds of Coinbase Ventures, Nomad Capital, Blockchain Capital and Hack VC) no page read states the co-investment, so every shared-round count below is NAUT's own record.
