Company mission

Invest in creators building "The Open Metaverse," a thesis and playbook outlining the future of freedom and equitable economics within digital environments.

Our take

Outlier Ventures was one of the first VC companies dedicated to investing in the emerging crypto ecosystem, particularly the Metaverse, which Bloomberg has labelled a potential $800bn market.

The firm’s centrepiece is their Base Camp web3 accelerator which has a strong record, having raised more than $250m for crypto ecosystem startups.

The firm has remained steadfast in its thesis: that the metaverse is an opportunity to build a better internet and is as much about sovereignty, transparency and privacy as it is about gaming and memes.

There is an incredible amount of noise in the space. That noise means that continuing to find startups that will return the firm’s funds and still align with their Open Metaverse principles could prove a difficult task.
