Here's the thing about investor feedback that founders overlook: They're not throwing out random ideas. They've seen this movie before. Multiple times. They know which features actually drive adoption and which ones are just "nice to have." When an investor says "you should…
Just because two countries share similar laws doesn't mean your business will translate seamlessly. When I’m investing in a geo-specific company, this is always one of my first questions. Different locations have different cultural contexts. Messaging that works in Karachi…
Healthcare is broken. And we're all paying for it. In the US, we continue to spend more in health care, but we are living shorter lives! Three out of five adults will get a chronic illness in their lifetime. Big pharma is selling subscriptions when we need real fixes. We're…
Bitcoin and blockchain continue to take center stage in the global financial ecosystem, the American government needs to get serious about bolstering our financial and national security. Every day state actors like North Korea work to undermine and destroy value from American…
I became an LP in my Dad @TimDraper fund @drapervc 2 years ago. I already got paid back 30% in 2 years. Insane! He’s the 🐐.
The billion-dollar idea that started over BBQ ribs in Wyoming… Most people think venture capital happens in fancy boardrooms with PowerPoint decks and term sheets. Sometimes it happens at a Bitcoin meetup out west. That's where I met @MiguelMorel, the founder of Arkham…
My grandfather was the first Silicon Valley venture capitalist. He started Draper Gaither Andersen in 1957. My father was a pioneer in venture capital, built Sutter Hill Partners and was the first VC in India. My mission has been to spread venture capital and entrepreneurship…
I just had a debate with Karl Marx's AI twin. It got heated. He thinks capitalism is exploitation. I think it's liberation. I said, “What were you thinking? Your Socialist ideas have subjected more than 2 billion people to abject poverty. It has never worked anywhere.…
Just wrapped an incredible interview with @IStartupTimes. Here's what most people don't realize: India has the largest viewership of @meetthedrapers globally. More students come to @draper_u from India than any other country (out of 104 countries). We just filmed an entire…
The defense industry just woke up from a 70-year nap. When Russia invaded Ukraine, most technologists were scoffing. 500 Russian tanks rolling down one road like sitting ducks. Any tech person watching thought, “You could take them all out with a drone." Hypersonic missile…
Here's the story on @athenahealth: "Kiss frogs until you find a prince." I guess I just like to look for the diamonds in the rough, but it seems to pay off. Most VCs like to back “the winners,” companies that seem like obvious successes, I like to look for those startups that…
Crashed an episode of Roohi Kazi’s podcast! Covered my perspective on India's startup ecosystem and the stories behind my biggest investments. We got into what actually makes or breaks early-stage companies. Worth a listen if you're building something that everyone else thinks…
Marking a new chapter, as of today, September 2, 2025, we're rebranding to TON Strategy Co. and our ticker changes to $TONX from $VERB. Our mission remains the same — to build the premier $TON treasury by accumulating, staking, and holding $TON. Follow us for updates and…
Over the next few months, I’ll be dropping some stories from "Draper's Top 40 Hits”. This is a book that was dedicated to the entrepreneurs who set out to change the world. The disruptors, the trailblazers, the rebels, the heroes. Here's what you can expect: → Real stories…
We raised $10 million to bring autonomous laser defense to the battlefield. Get an exclusive look inside our $10M seed round from @axios. Thank you to @demarest_colin for telling our story. Stay tuned for our video release.
Laser defense: highly investable, cutting-edge tech. Drones changed warfare forever, and lasers are the great equalizer. Amazing work being done by @aureliuslasers & a great scoop on this funding here by @demarest_colin @axios.

The institutional FOMO is real. We're watching banks and boardrooms across America scramble to figure out Bitcoin custody. Companies that laughed at the idea 2 years ago are now asking "how fast can we get this on our balance sheet?" Here's what I told Vince Quill on the…
Being in a crowded market doesn’t mean that you're destined to fail. But it does mean you’ll face more skepticism and thorough questioning from investors. The ones who have the answers AND the passion to keep going… They’ll disrupt entire industries.
I joined @MissTaylorShead on her new podcast and revealed why I invested in @StemuliStudios. I met Taylor right after I finished reading Ready Player One. Every company that @drapervc has ever backed could read like a sci-fi book. When I see a story stepping off the pages into…
