Entrée Capital launches $300 million fund, focusing on AI agents and DePIN infrastructure tracks

Entrée Capital has officially announced the launch of a new $300 million fund, focusing on investments in AI agents, decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN), and regulated Web3 infrastructure. This move marks an acceleration of institutional capital flowing into blockchain systems capable of deeply integrating with modern technology stacks, especially as AI and crypto-native infrastructure rapidly converge.

According to Entrée Capital, the fund will focus on seed to Series A stage projects, targeting entrepreneurial teams driving the mainstream adoption of blockchain infrastructure. Key areas include AI agents capable of autonomous asset management within crypto strategy frameworks, and DePIN networks that coordinate, finance, and operate real-world infrastructure through token incentive mechanisms. These directions are seen as core technologies driving the next phase of mass adoption.

As an institution with years of experience in fintech and crypto, Entrée Capital was an early investor in global fintech giants such as Stripe, Rapyd, and Mesh, and has also supported Web3 innovators like Gen Labs and Breez. The company stated that this experience enables it to provide deep resources and strategic support to entrepreneurs operating at the intersection of regulated finance and decentralized networks.

AI agents and DePIN networks are receiving particular attention from institutional investors and are regarded as native extensions of AI and cloud computing within the crypto industry: AI agents enable automated asset management and strategy execution; DePIN drives node collaboration through token incentives to build scalable physical infrastructure networks, such as decentralized communication, computing power, and storage systems.

With further integration of AI and blockchain, Entrée Capital believes these two areas will become the most promising growth engines in the coming years. The establishment of this new fund not only represents institutional capital accelerating its deployment into next-generation Web3 foundational infrastructure, but also highlights the evolution of crypto technology toward greater efficiency, intelligence, and deeper connection with the real world.
