Not just new technology, but a new economic model
Corporate consolidation and data-driven monopolization have led to asymmetrical returns for shareholders, societal inequality and growing levels of distrust with the system.
At Rarestone, we believe crypto represents a paradigm shift in how humans and devices organize, collaborate and consume.
By solving the inefficiencies and injustices at the very core of our social constructs, we believe crypto will restore trust and fairness with the businesses we work for, the technologies we use, and the products & services we consume.
We back purpose driven founders changing the world.
Since 2015, we have made over 70 investments as angels, helped entrepreneurs raise over $300 million and witnessed multiple market cycles.
Crypto presents an infinite amount of white space in what we believe will be known as the open metaverse. At Rarestone, we seek to deploy capital in imaginable and unimaginable market segments.
History has taught us to not only trust our instincts, but to also operate on principles rather than a narrow investment thesis.
