About this episode

In this episode of The Unstoppable Podcast, we’re talking to Kinjal Shah. She’s a Senior Associate at Blockchain Capital, a crypto venture fund, and an investor at the Komorebi Fund, the very first investment DAO focused specifically on funding female and non-binary crypto founders.

Kinjal talks about her experience moving from traditional financial services into crypto. She explains how Blockchain Capital works and the kinds of projects they typically invest in.

We discuss how Blockchain Capital decides which projects to invest in, and Kinjal shares some underdog projects which people might not be aware of. We discuss infrastructure and the biggest needs in this space right now, along with some different approaches to bridging the gap between Web 2.0 and Web 3.0.

Kinjal shares how she feels about DAOs — are people jumping into them too fast? Will they ever replace traditional VCs? We also talk about how Komorebi started and where the idea came from, along with how decision-making takes place and how people can get involved.

Finally, we discuss some ideas on how we can make the crypto space more welcoming for women in general.
