The venture firm pioneering Bitcoin as the hurdle rate

The Early Riders Mission

At Early Riders, we fundamentally believe that Bitcoin is better money. Our investment strategy integrates Bitcoin into every aspect of our operations to yield superior returns. We raise capital, maintain our treasury, and return capital to our limited partners exclusively in Bitcoin. Additionally, all of our portfolio companies maintain Bitcoin reserves.

This comprehensive Bitcoin integration creates a high opportunity cost for capital deployment, given Bitcoin's historical price appreciation. Every investment decision is weighed against the compelling alternative of holding Bitcoin long-term.

We see significant potential in early-stage companies with large total addressable markets, particularly those aligning with our Bitcoin-centric philosophy. These companies understand that every capital expenditure and expense should be evaluated against the prospect of acquiring and holding Bitcoin for the long term.

Early Riders is dedicated to differentiated market analysis, prudent capital allocation, and providing exceptional operational guidance in our mission to deliver exceptional Bitcoin-adjusted returns.
