"M31's team has been instrumental in helping us refine our vision and accelerate our growth. Their support has allowed us to focus on building the fastest and most scalable verifiable AI network in the space, bringing our groundbreaking technology to market faster and with greater impact."
Jeremy
FOUNDER OF AIZEL NETWORK
"The M31 team is incredible. David, Nathan, and the entire team have been instrumental in Blockless's growth, bringing their deep insights and long-term perspective in the compute industry to everything from go-to-market strategies and research to marketing support. Their honest feedback and neutral perspective have been invaluable, effectively complementing our team as we build and scale."
Butian Li
FOUNDER OF BLOCKLESS
"It’s very rare for a VC in crypto, especially a liquid investment fund, to feature such technically sophisticated people as we encountered at M31. We deeply appreciate M31’s outstanding dedication to allocating resources and truly understanding the vision we’re pursuing. Their data-driven long-term approach is quite rare in a landscape seemingly dominated by short-termism."
Dmitry Zhelezov
CO-FOUNDER OF SUBSQUID
"First of all let me say a major thanks to M31. I’m speaking to a lot of VCs, and it’s pretty rare in the Web3 space that you actually have technically sophisticated venture capitalist investors. And it just feels very good working with you."
Marcel Fohrmann
CO-FOUNDER OF SUBSQUID
"When researching our project, the M31 team went the extra mile, diving deep into the underlying tech and even co-authoring an article with us about real world use cases for our tech. They recognized synergies with their portfolio companies and put us in contact with new customers and partners. M31 led our Seed round and continues to add value every day."
