About Genblock Capital

Genblock Capital is a San Francisco-based venture capital firm founded in 2017 by Bilal Junaid that invests exclusively in blockchain, cryptocurrency, and decentralized finance (DeFi). The firm targets early-stage companies across Seed, Series A, and Pre-Seed rounds, with a primary geographic focus on the United States while maintaining activity in Asia. Genblock has deployed over $20 million across more than 100 companies, operating as a hybrid vehicle that provides both capital and strategic support in token economics, liquidity bootstrapping, and market making. While specific check sizes and lead/follow behavior are not publicly disclosed, the firm emphasizes deep engagement and acts as a “poweruser” of its invested projects. Notable portfolio companies include Polkadot, Solana, Filecoin, and Synthetix, with FTX also listed among its early investments. Genblock distinguishes itself by focusing heavily on DeFi (accounting for roughly 44% of its investments) and by offering operational expertise rather than just financial backing.
