Paperclip Partners

Paperclip Partners is a web3 native investment firm that specializes in early-stage technology startups. They provide technical and strategic support to help companies succeed, leveraging their expertise in blockchain technology to build successful products at scale. Their mission is to actively collaborate with high-integrity teams from the earliest stage to develop technologies that will shape the future. Their approach is hands-on, responsive, and closely engaged with the teams they back. They believe in under-promising and over-delivering by giving their teams access to the advisory and networks they need to succeed. As crypto natives who have been active in the space since 2012, they have developed strong reputations and long-term relationships within the crypto community. The name 'Paperclip' is inspired by the 'Paperclip Maximizer' thought experiment, which postulates that a sufficiently powerful Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) programmed to maximize paperclip production could lead to unintended negative outcomes. This reflects their recognition that poor systems and structures can result in significantly negative outcomes to society, and as early investors and advisors, they aim to push the world towards a better path.
