Canonical Crypto

Canonical Crypto is a venture capital firm based in San Francisco that focuses on early-stage investments in companies operating in the web3, blockchain, and AI infrastructure sectors. The firm, founded by Anand Iyer, launched its inaugural $20 million fund to invest in pre-seed and seed-stage startups, particularly those building developer infrastructure. Canonical's investment thesis centers on backing technical founders who are creating the "picks-and-shovels" for a future built on open, decentralized AI and blockchain technology.
