Elad Verbin is an Israeli computer scientist turned Berlin-based VC at Lunar Ventures who positions himself as an algorithms developer who became an investor, focusing specifically on pre-seed deep-tech moonshots in areas like ML, cryptography, blockchains, and compilers rather than broader deep tech. He's known for his structured, recipe-like framework for founder-VC first meetings and regularly publishes long-form essays on behavioral crypto-economics while speaking about free range algorithms and the impact of algorithmists on the world.

Notable Investments
Lunar Ventures is run solely by R&D experts with deep computer science backgrounds who focus exclusively on pre-seed deep-tech software startups in areas like AI infrastructure, cryptography, dev tools, and semiconductors. The fund is explicitly designed for technical builders who struggled to explain their product and vision to other investors, emphasizing science fiction into reality investments that are too early or too technical for most generalist funds.
