Splits below are computed from 24 companies we classified out of the roughly 150 investments named across ryzelabs.io/en/portfolio's four categories (Alt L1, Infrastructure, DApp, Gaming/Metaverse). The 24 are a representative sample, not the full list.

C. Overview

C. Overview

Ryze Labs is the current identity of what was previously Sino Global Capital, founded in 2017. The rename reflects a broadened mandate: the site now describes the firm as operating "at the intersection of blockchain, AI, and digital infrastructure," and states a track record of 150-plus investments across more than 30 countries. The tagline "Local Insights, Global Impact" is a direct, stated emerging-markets orientation, which the firm's Asia-rooted history as Sino Global Capital backs up.

The portfolio page is organized into four categories: Alt L1 (Polygon, Sui, Persistence), Infrastructure (LayerZero, Pyth, Stargate, Metaplex, XDEFI Wallet, and a long list of smaller infrastructure and tooling plays), DApp (a broad mix of DeFi protocols including Clearpool, MarginFi and Zeta Markets, plus RWA name PV01), and Gaming/Metaverse (Blocklords, Nyan Heroes, Supergaming and others). The named list is one of the larger single-page portfolio disclosures in this directory, though the site does not publish a cheque range, a named investment team, or a structured application process beyond a "Submit a Project" button on the contact page.

Key stats:

  • Founded 2017 as Sino Global Capital, rebranded to Ryze Labs
  • 150+ investments across 30+ countries (firm's own figure)
  • Portfolio organized into Alt L1, Infrastructure, DApp, Gaming/Metaverse
  • No public cheque range or named team
