Paradigm is a research-driven crypto investment firm that funds companies and protocols from their earliest stages, often when there’s no more than an idea. We were founded in 2018 by Matt Huang and Fred Ehrsam on the belief that crypto is driving one of the most important technical and economic shifts of our time, as money, a financial system, and a new internet platform. We’re builders, not just investors. Many of us have worked on tools, protocols, and companies that are now some of the most used in crypto. We build software, much of it open source, that aims to advance the frontier of crypto for everyone. Research is at the core of everything we do. We believe depth is a prerequisite for invention, and that real progress happens at the frontier, not in the boardroom or the ivory tower. We are as likely to collaborate on a research paper or ship code as we are to advise on product or business strategy.
