Cultur3 Capital is a community-first VC. Cultur3 thinks the end game in web3 is DAOs. 5 years from now, DAOs will coordinate much of who does what in web3, and how DeFi, NFT, and Metaverse protocols will be integrated into a coherent whole - differently, but not completely incongruously, to how the world is organized today via the corporation.Cultur3 isn't trying to be the biggest fund (whether by AUM or people), nor a publicly famous fund. Rather, Cultur3 is focused on being the most profitable fund operating at the intersection of culture and web3. Put differently, Cultur3 is a DAO-first fund, not an NFT-first, or DeFi-first, or Metaverse-first fund.
