Matt Cooper's path to venture ran through stablecoin business development at Maker Foundation and institutional trading infrastructure at Etale, which was later acquired by NYDIG, before he founded his own pre-seed blockchain fund, Kraynos Capital, positioned at the intersection of traditional finance and decentralized finance. That background makes him more of an operator-turned-investor focused on the institutional side of crypto, having built a fund himself rather than only investing as part of a larger team.
About their Fund
New Form Capital is a seed fund focused specifically on the overlap of blockchain, financial markets, and data, raising money from macro hedge funds, private equity professionals, and bankers who want informed exposure to crypto, and treating regulatory analysis—working with outside counsel to check whether what they back is legal now and likely to stay legal—as a core part of how they evaluate investments. The firm has also been an early and consistent voice on real-world assets, aiming to put traditional financial assets on the blockchain so they can trade globally and around the clock, and it has expanded beyond venture investing into a liquid fund that gives institutional investors access to multiple crypto strategies, including market-neutral options.
