Fiskantes
Bio
"Zee Prime’s rise is due in no small part to the ever-growing profile of one of their founding partners, Fiskantes. The pseudonymous, self-described “venture communist” is a quintessential part of the CryptoTwitter canon – effortlessly blending shitposts, market analysis, and social commentary behind the profile pic facade of an anime clown, Hisoka.
Among his highlights are correctly predicting that high-throughput blockchains eventually become clogged based on a 200 year-old energy consumption paradox, calling the NFT rise early, and contributing to Zee Prime’s ongoing success. The firm now counts multiple funds under management, including the flagship Zee Prime II, which closed with a $35 million cap in 2022. However, Fiskantes’ journey has not been without ups and downs. Before his current success he was a prolific poker player and a would-be cheesemonger who wiped out his bankroll on a floundering Gouda business. Real estate investments helped get him back on his feet, and he eventually struck rich in crypto with a careful, cross-disciplinary methodology and approach."
