I’m Garry Tan, venture capitalist and founder at Initialized Capital. We were earliest investors in billion dollar startups like Coinbase and Instacart, and I’m a Forbes Midas List Top 100 venture capitalist in the world.

Our startups have gone on to create more than $100 billion in market value so far, and Initialized has over $1B in assets under management.
