- Perceptron
Participated · Equity · Jul 2026
Perceptron operates a decentralised AI data mesh that aggregates global data collection into a contributor network for sourcing and verifying datasets. The platform is live and reports more than 807,000 nodes onboarded, with over 300,000 daily active users and earlier stages reaching more than 200,000 users across Telegram and Discord. Contributors retain ownership of their data and earnings and can monetise or withdraw them without intermediaries. Perceptron is launching a data-questing platform to enable AI companies to commission high-value datasets directly from the community, shortening sourcing timelines. The company aims to expand contributor tooling and rewards infrastructure and scale the network toward a long-term target of 5 million nodes. It recently raised $6.5 million in a strategic round to support these product launches and scaling efforts.
- Asgard
Participated · Seed · Dec 2025
Asgard is a decentralized finance (DeFi) startup focused on enabling on-chain, composable structured trading through its flagship product, Credit Backed Positions (CBP). CBP allows users to create structured positions that are collateralized by credit rather than traditional assets, aiming to improve capital efficiency within DeFi markets. Built on the Solana blockchain, the platform targets traders who require low-latency execution and easy composability with other Solana protocols. During its closed beta, users have already opened CBP positions totaling more than US$35 million, signaling early traction. The fresh capital will be used to refine the CBP product, broaden beta access, and expand integrations across the Solana ecosystem. Management also plans to invest in security audits and develop additional structured products layered on top of CBP. No revenue figures were disclosed in the article.

- Reflect
Participated · Seed · Sep 2025
Reflect is developing a software-as-a-stablecoin platform that lets applications issue yield-bearing stablecoins without locking user assets or complex operations. The product tokenizes on-chain DeFi strategies—such as delta-neutral basis trades and lending—so deposited USDC can generate yield while remaining fully liquid. Reflect plans to launch a yield-bearing USDC branded “USDC+” and aims for mainnet launch in early September, initially supporting USDC on Solana. Strategies are currently curated by the Reflect team, with intentions to open them to developers subject to governance approval. Risk management is central: each strategy is backed by an autonomous on-chain insurance liquidity pool called the Global Insurance pool, which will utilize Jito restaked assets to provide liquidity and enable slippage-free, MEV-free, feeless rebalancing. The company recently won Colosseum’s 2024 Solana Radar hackathon and raised seed funding to support development.
- DeCharge
Participated · Seed · Mar 2025
DeCharge operates a decentralized, AI-powered energy network for EVs, fleets, and autonomous mobility, combining smart hardware, intelligent software, and scalable energy infrastructure. Its ecosystem includes high-speed DC chargers (VoltBox) for highways and community-driven deployments in urban hubs. The company uses H3 Spatial Indexing to target deployments in underserved regions. DeCharge plans to launch a fully tokenized DeCharge Energy Marketplace to enable participation by EV owners, businesses, and grid operators. It will scale tokenized incentives for charger hosts, fleet operators, and EV users to drive adoption. The company recently raised seed funding to support these product launches and geographic expansion.
