## About Two Hop Ventures

VC Fund · Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Two Hop is a VC fund focusing exclusively on startups providing the infrastructure for the next generation secure internet. While the Web 2.0 democratized many power structures and created new opportunities, the economic engine is largely privatized and monopolized. Facebook, Uber and AirBnB have created private networks for public infrastructurewhich they dominate. Web 3 is the antithesis and promises to return the internet to the hands of users through the combination of blockchain and internet. It’s about multiple profit centers sharing value across an open network. Two Hop believes the BSV blockchain is best suited for becoming the backbone of Web 3.
