C. Overview

C. Overview

cyber.fund has been active since 2014, and per its Crunchbase profile has contributed to P2P.org, the =nil; Foundation and the Lido DAO, three names that put it inside the core Ethereum staking and infrastructure story of the last decade. It is headquartered in George Town, Cayman Islands, and was founded by Dima Starodubcev, Konstantin Lomashuk, Marina Guryeva and Vitaly Lvov.

In 2026 the fund launched Monastery, framed as "The First Monastery for AI-native Founders": a 12-week residency offering a $2M uncapped SAFE to one- to three-person teams building "products that were impossible a year ago," per the fund's own public announcement and sponsor-partner promotion through Machine Learning Street Talk. The cheque size is unusually large for a program this short and this selective in team size, which signals the fund is optimizing for very few, exceptional AI-native founders rather than a high-volume batch.

The fund also publishes a dedicated 2025 investment thesis on AI x crypto, giving a real, citable framework for its current thinking beyond the Monastery marketing page itself. The fund's legacy venture portfolio (distinct from Monastery) could not be independently verified in this session; the site is JavaScript-rendered and returned only metadata to automated fetching, and third-party trackers (Crunchbase) confirmed 29 investments in count but did not surface individual company names beyond a single redacted entry. This page leaves the portfolio section empty rather than filling it with unverified names.
