Kathryn Haun, a former federal prosecutor with the US Department of Justice, investigated Mt. Gox and assisted in the demise of the Silk Road illicit marketplace while working for the attorney general's office. She later moved into crypto investing, where she rose through the ranks of Andreessen Horowitz's crypto fund to become the firm's first female general partner.

 

Andreessen Horowitz began the year by projecting that Bitcoin would be important to monetization techniques by the end of the decade. In late spring, the company produced a paper analyzing three crypto peaking cycles in 2010, 2013, and 2017, and projecting an optimistic future for crypto investors. Another remark stated that the COVID-19 pandemic will hasten the use of cryptocurrency and blockchain. Andreessen Horowitz also raised $515 million for its second crypto-focused fund in the spring, exceeding its initial objective by $65 million.

 

Haun has said that humanity's future will be digital and devoid of banks. Andreessen Horowitz assisted in the funding of Dfinity's Internet Computer, which intends to decentralize cloud services. Later in the fall, Andreessen Horowitz.

 

As the expansion of digital assets in emerging market nations continues, We expect Haun to participate in these investments. With the rise of decentralized finance protocols, it's doubtful that Andreessen Horowitz would pass up the opportunity to invest in such projects. Traditional and blockchain-focused venture capital investors, such as Andreessen Horowitz, will continue to invest millions of dollars on crypto infrastructure upgrades in 2020, as shown. Some significant breakthroughs in the educational realm are also predicted, with Andreessen Horowitz's "Crypto Startup School" playing a key role.
