Katie Haun: The New Queen of the Encryption World

Katie Haun's rise to stardom in the encryption field is no accident. As a former federal prosecutor, she has unique insights into the regulatory environment of this emerging industry. After joining Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), she co-led the company's encryption investment team with Chris Dixon, investing in popular projects like Coinbase and OpenSea.

At the end of 2021, Haun announced her departure from a16z to start her own venture capital firm. Her new company plans to raise $1.5 billion, focusing on early-stage and accelerator investments in the encryption field. Haun hopes to build a lean, small team that takes a more targeted approach to services and looks for high-quality projects globally.

As one of the few influential women in the encryption field, Haun's new company has garnered widespread attention. She emphasizes the need to leverage her expertise in regulation and law while utilizing her "superpower" of finding exceptional founders. Despite the volatility in the encryption market, Haun remains confident about the industry's prospects.

Haun's new company has made 7 investments, including participating in the $170 million funding for the NFT platform Autograph. Additionally, she serves on the boards of several well-known encryption companies such as OpenSea and Coinbase. In this rapidly evolving industry, Haun is working hard to build her own investment empire and become the new "queen" of the encryption world.
