James Wo got into crypto early, applying a statistics background to bitcoin around 2013–2014 and later becoming an early backer of Polkadot and Kusama, going beyond typical VC involvement with direct capital, donations, and support around parachain auctions. At Jsquare, he evaluates projects by user count and network effects, prefers holding tokens for at least four cycles, and looks for gaming teams with long track records making genuinely fun products first.

Jsquare was co-founded by Joanna Liang, who previously built DFG's crypto lending and Polkadot ecosystem work, and the fund positions itself as a bridge between Asian and Western crypto markets, helping portfolio companies grow through a network of exchanges, launchpads, guilds, and KOLs, with Southeast Asia and Korea as key focus regions. Beyond investing, Jsquare organizes founder and VC gatherings across Asia, holds the view that meme coin success comes from attention and community rather than utility, has grown from a $150M self-funded fund into a $200M AUM platform with a $50M LP fund, backs a mix of CeFi, consumer, and infrastructure projects, and is known for having a female co-founder who speaks publicly about women in Web3.
