New S Tier Founders just dropped: (@alexkshieh, @hajsharda and @BarclayDavidP).
Proud to be their first believer with @davidjrbrill for The Antifraud Company. In just a few short months, they have already identified over a $250,000,000 in fraud and built an amazing business.

Introducing The Antifraud Company (@AntifraudCo) 🧵
We raised over $5M from @AbstractVC, @BrowderCapital & @dunevc to build a private-sector DOGE, where we use AI and investigative journalism to track down those who defraud American taxpayers.

Excited to co-lead the $35m Series B into what we believe is the top VR studio, Ramen VR.
If you haven't played @ZenithMMO, with only 15 (incredible) team members, they built the #1 selling VR game across all platforms on launch.
