Synapse Network

What they do

Founded in 2021 by Michał Domarecki and Paweł Łaskarzewski, Synapse Network was created to democratize early-stage crypto investments. Originally launched as a cross-chain IDO platform, it has evolved into a comprehensive 360-degree ecosystem featuring a VC fund, technology labs, and an omnichain token structure ($zkSNP). The firm is highly regarded in the European Web3 ecosystem for its proprietary anti-bot technology, fair-tier staking systems, and strong community focus, positioning itself as a bridge between mainstream finance and the DeFi revolution.

What they look for

Synapse Network focuses on bridging the gap between traditional and crypto markets by investing in and accelerating early-stage blockchain projects. They aim to "institutionalize the DeFi revolution" by combining the stability and security of mainstream finance with the innovative features of blockchain technology. They seek disruptive early-stage Web3, GameFi, and DeFi projects with solid fundamentals, dedicated teams, and strong community-building potential. They heavily favor projects that require cross-chain interoperability and can benefit from their massive retail community (over 500,000 members).
