Electric Capital

About Electric Capital

Electric Capital is an early-stage venture firm investing in the next generation of iconic frontier tech founders. We are an engineering-led early-stage venture firm investing in companies and protocols uniquely enabled by cryptography and distributed systems. Founded in 2018, our 30-person team is 61% engineers and 35% former founders. We manage over $3 billion across five funds and several SPVs. We have offices in San Francisco, New York, and Toronto. We have invested in technologies that reduce reliance on intermediaries. Trust in global institutions is eroding. The need for alternative systems is no longer theoretical. AI makes the shift toward trust-minimized systems more urgent and more possible than ever. We partner with founders who focus on artificial intelligence, cryptography, fintech, healthcare, energy marketplaces, government systems, identity and reputation, the creator economy, and more. We know how to grow companies from initial commitment to IPO. We have collectively started eight companies (six acquired), run billion-dollar business units, invested in 100+ technology startups that now have a cumulative market cap of $50B+, and shipped products used by billions. We support exceptional founders at every stage. The founders who drive frontier technological advancements must pair deep domain expertise with system-disrupting insights. These founders need a deeply technical partner who can help them navigate structural shifts in technology and markets.
