Boost VC has been backing blockchains since before anyone called the industry crypto: it was just bitcoin then. An early stage investor that also ran an incubator, Brayton Williams takes us back to the days when they decided to back 100 bitcoin startups. They met that goal by 2018, though they expanded their thinking into all of crypto. Today they also invest in amazing people and potentially trillion dollar future markets. The idea is: make science fiction a reality.
