As per TechCrunch, the fund led by Andrew Jiang and Todd Goldberg has raised $30 million. Reddit Co-Founder Alexis Ohanian in addition to Electric Capital's Avichal Garg also participated in the funding. Goldberg said:

"We’ll wait for the best opportunities to enter these positions and then we’ll just hold these things long-term. Long-term, patient capital doesn’t sound like a big deal, but I think in this market where everyone is very short-term focused, it actually is a strategic advantage."

According to reports, the fund wants to spend half of its capital in tokens from projects like CryptoPunks, Art Blocks and Bored Apes. The other half of the fund will be used to support "high potential collections" from creators with smaller existing markets. Goldberg added that the fund may also drop its own NFTs, but no details were given on that.
