Former Goldman Sachs Employee Founded Crypto VC Neoclassic Capital

ChainCatcher news, Neoclassic Capital, a crypto venture capital firm founded by former Goldman Sachs employees Steve Lee and Michael Bucella, has officially launched. The company is dedicated to injecting capital into various sectors of the crypto industry, including emerging SoFi and GameFi projects, as well as services related to digital asset lending, derivatives, and the tokenization of physical assets.

Headquartered in Miami, Neoclassic Capital was established in January this year and has received investments from notable figures such as Marc Andreessen, Chris Dixon, and Jeff Vinik, the owner of the Tampa Bay Lightning. The firm focuses on early-stage blockchain applications (from pre-seed to Series A) and acts as a bridge connecting digital asset investors from East Asia and North America with companies, leveraging the cross-cultural backgrounds and multilingual abilities of its founders.

Recently, the company has secured investments from several international investors, including SBI Holdings executive Genki Oda and Zurich-based investment advisory firm L1 Digital AG, which will help propel the development of emerging crypto projects. In the future, Neoclassic Capital also plans to launch projects such as hedge funds, growth equity, and credit.
