Press Start Capital

Press Start Capital 👉🎮 is a web3 venture capital firm founded by experienced builders with multiple exits.We pioneered web3-native pre-accelerator Fellowships - providing hyper early stage founders with first checks, mentorship from OG founders, and a bridge to top accelerators.We also make pre-seed investments into use cases that will onboard the next billion users to Web3: entertainment, gaming, creator, consumer, agentic interfaces, etc.

1st Check Pre-Accelerator

As builders ourselves, we believe the best support for founders is a community of fellow builders - building alongside each other, learning together, and supporting one another. Our pre-accelerator Fellowships and other programs aim to push the industry forward by seeding and supporting the next generation of web3 founders.We've been running Fellowship cohorts since 2022, with the majority of our Fellowship alums going on to raise or join top accelerators such as Alliance DAO, a16z Crypto Startup School & SPEEDRUN, Binance Labs, and Y Combinator.Our mission is to provide hands-on support & write first checks for 100 teams starting a new adventure.Past programs:

Onboarding the next Billion Users

We believe entertainment-related use cases will help blockchain technologies “cross the chasm” to more mainstream users. Now is the perfect time to build the New Golden Age of Entertainment - where creators, gamers and fans join forces to co-create and co-own the games, stories and characters we cherish.We also look for novel interfaces (AI Agents) and use cases (FOCGs) that will lower the barrier for new entrants.
