    Primitive Ventures is a crypto venture firm founded by industry veteran Dovey Wan, fully owned by the team. Since 2014, the team have held the belief that crypto, both as a technology and an asset class, represents the new socioeconomic primitive that will redefine individual sovereignty and revolutionize the global economy. We invest in this future with unwavering conviction, dedicating our time and personal wealth. We have been early investors in renowned projects such as Kyber, ICP, Zcash, Cosmos, Theta Network, Celer Network, Starkware, Optimism, Biconomy, Multichain, Nansen, and many others. Additionally, we are the earliest backer of anon projects like Synapse, GMX, LooksRare, and Pika, driven by our thesis of "Long substance, short status" and our advocacy for credible anonymous founders.
