In crypto, raising money isn’t the hard part, building something that lasts is. Too many funds wait for a token event. We’re on the ground with founders, refining products, recruiting teams, finding early users. That’s the operator-led model behind MFV, a $50M fund built by founders who’ve scaled from idea to ecosystem. Great to share the story with Ben Weiss at Fortune on how hands-on capital is changing what it means to be a crypto VC.

The vibes are changing for crypto. @NYSE

From zero to one is hard. From zero to scale takes the right partner. That’s why @mf__xyz exists. @NYSE

Watch @moshaikhs on @theCUBE from the floor of the @NYSE where he talked about connecting Web3 to Wall Street and what’s next for innovation. At @mf__xyz, we’re helping founders turn ideas into real companies – bridging capital, markets, and adoption. The next chapter of crypto is about building things that matter.

🧠 What's the key startup secret borrowed from Elon Musk? @moshaikhs (co-founder of @mf__xyz) explains their hands-on strategy: solving "the hardest problem" for founders before the day ends. Thank you @OwlTing 🫡 for being a sponsor of CoinDesk Media Network.

MFV doesn’t just invest. We help founders build for scale.

This week we launched Maximum Frequency Ventures (@mf__xyz), a $50M operator-led fund built to back the next generation of crypto founders. The game is no longer just about funding. It’s about co-building. Great to join @joshuahlipton on @YahooFinance to chat about the launch!

“Crypto provides all of these new paradigm shifts for these different industries, whether it’s money or IP, and we’re investing in these founders and have made 6 investments already,” Maximum Frequency Ventures co-founder @moshaikhs says.

Good development for the industry. We need more operators in investment seats. People who can get in the trenches with founders and who know what it takes to scale teams, build products, launch your token, etc. Congrats @moshaikhs + @neilhar_ and the @mf__xyz team.

Mo and @neilhar_ with their new fund. bitcoin builders should put them on their list of top emerging funds to talk to.

Huge congrats to @moshaikhs and @neilhar_ on launching MFV! Mo and Neil both have an incredible ability to synthesize information and turn it into actionable data. When that information is a firehose, like it is when leading an L1, and like it is in VC, that skill is priceless. Above all - thankful to have them as friends!

Most crypto VCs invest, but few have actually built. That’s the gap holding the industry back. Founders don’t just need capital; they need partners who’ve been in the trenches, shipped product, and scaled from zero to adoption. MFV was built to close that gap – a $50M operator-led engine designed by founders, for founders. Operators who’ve done it before are now helping the next generation do it faster. @moshaikhs @neilhar_ @MS_alextang @0xrome_ Let’s build

I’m back and excited to share Maximum Frequency Ventures inaugural $50m fund with the world. MFV was built as an evolution to venture capital in crypto. CT is quick to dunk on VCs, often rightfully so, but venture capital remains still one of the strongest forces for good in this industry. @moshaikhs @MS_alextang @0xrome_ and I built MFV as a vehicle designed to support founders to build generational companies while we remain in the trenches with them. Supporting builders was the best part of working at Aptos - seeing hungry founders grind and win. We cultivated 200+ projects with a collective $150m raised across them. Those experiences taught us what great founders need and where VC often falls short. That realization led us here. We’re a VC that spends more time building than investing. Rolling up our sleeves is the foundation for this venture. Our team came together naturally as we saw ~90% of the collective business outcomes at Aptos. From the biggest partnerships to ecosystem-defining deals, we’ve lived the highs and lows of scaling in real time and we’ll bring that same experience to every company we invest in. The timing couldn’t be better. The next wave of crypto demands builders who can execute with precision, resilience, and speed. We’re ready to match that energy. It’s time for VCs to build. MFV will be in the trenches. See you there.

🚀 Today, @moshaikhs @neilhar_ @MS_alextang & I launch Maximum Frequency Ventures (MFV) - a $50M operator-led crypto company-creation engine and venture fund. This is personal for me. I’ve spent my career moving between the discipline of institutions and the chaos of startups, and every stop along the way taught me lessons I wish more founders had access to.
