The Great Reversal
The old internet promised empowerment and delivered extraction.
For twenty years, people built trillion-dollar monopolies with their time, content, and data — and got almost nothing back. Platforms called it 'engagement.' In reality, it was unpaid labor feeding a machine that treated users as a commodity, not a constituency.
Today, two forces crack that model: AI and blockchain.
AI collapses the cost of coordination, creation, and operations. Blockchain gives us a programmable ownership layer for value, identity, and incentive design. Together, they make it possible for small, focused teams to do what once required thousands of employees — and to wire the upside directly to the people who generate it.
We call this the Great Reversal.
It is the shift from centralized platforms to network-native systems. From margin extraction to margin distribution. From walled gardens to interoperable rails. From users as the product to users as participants.
What We Back
In practice, Anaconda Fund backs AI-native, user-owned systems across social, e-commerce, and finance.
We fund founders who build:
- Platforms where creators and consumers share upside, not just fees.
- Social and live experiences where every view, click, and conversion is traceable and rewardable.
- Commerce networks where buyers are stakeholders, not disposable traffic.
- Marketplaces and terminals where attention, liquidity, and data flow through transparent rails instead of black-box ad engines.
We are not interested in incremental SaaS. We are not interested in renting data back to the people who generated it. We are interested in software that re-architects who gets paid, who controls the rails, and who compounds the benefits of scale.
The Anaconda Method
Anacondas do not chase everything that moves. They wait.
They live submerged — patient, observant, still. They study the flow of water, heat, and vibration. And when a target finally drifts into the wrong place at the wrong time, the strike is quick and the outcome is inevitable.
That behavior maps to how we operate:
Detection and Stealth
We track the deep signals: the movement of capital, user behavior, wallet flows, protocol changes, and culture shifts around social and commerce. We are not reacting to headlines. We are watching the structural weaknesses in legacy models.
Ambush and Strike
When a legacy system exposes a gap — mispriced risk, bloated costs, bad incentives, missing ownership — we move fast with small, sharp teams. The goal is not a press release. The goal is a product live in the wild, compounding.
Constriction
Once the new system works, we compress the advantage. AI automation replaces headcount. On-chain rails replace intermediaries. Fees are driven down, user rewards are pushed up, and the old model suffocates under its own overhead. The pressure is steady, rational, and irreversible.
Why We Exist
We exist to return power, profit, and participation to the people who create value online.
That means streamers and their audiences who are tired of platforms taking the majority of the economics. Brands who are tired of paying for opaque marketing with no verifiable outcome. Developers who want to ship systems that are honest about incentives, rather than pretending neutrality while extracting rent.
We believe the next dominant networks will not be owned by a single company. They will be built and maintained by aligned creators, contributors, and capital — with programmable, enforceable rules around who gets what and why.
Our Commitment
We back the builders, breakers, and believers rebuilding the internet from the inside out.
We will not chase hype cycles for their own sake. We will not fund extractive replicas of the old web dressed in new vocabulary. We will look for systems where AI reduces waste and blockchain enforces fairness — and where the upside flows to the network, not just the cap table.
When we say no limits, no masters, only momentum, we mean it as an operating principle, not a slogan.
- No limits on what sectors we enter when the incentive design is right.
- No masters in the form of legacy institutions dictating what is possible.
- Only momentum in the form of compounding products, data, and aligned communities.
The Great Reversal is not about tearing down the internet. It is about finishing the job the internet was supposed to start: giving people real leverage over the systems they power.
Anaconda Fund exists to make that reversal inevitable.
