The definition of the Metaverse can range from Oculus immersive experiences and avatar based virtual conferences, to Zoom calls and playing Fortnite with virtual friends. When Mark Zuckerberg announced Facebook will now be rebranded to Meta, it brought attention to the once new industry with very little mainstream adoption. These are the top VC and Angel Investors funding the ecosystem.
How we Rank these Metaverse VC and Angel Investors
Subscribers, views, and comments can now be manipulated. At Crowdcreate, we use a proprietary ranking formula based on these factors.
1.) Peer scoring. We ask the experts and run surveys asking other influencers, founders, and investors who ranks at the top of their list.
2.) Quality Content. How good is the content that these influencers are creating?
3.) Subscriber Growth Rate. A faster growing following shows more influence. The number of subscribers isn’t as important as how fast an influencer is growing.
4.) Community Engagement. Our propriety formula includes metrics such as average view counts, organic mentions from other platforms and channels, and audience retention.
5.) Comments. An engaged following that posts genuine comments that aren’t generated by bots or spam is how to spot a good influencer.
These Angel Investors share their expert insights on many of the most frequently asked questions in the industry.

Is Metaverse Crypto a Good Investment?
t’s important to note, however, that the metaverse is still in its infancy and its value proposition has yet to be proven. Any investment in the metaverse should be considered speculative and highly risky
We believe blockchain technology and the decentralized web represent the next major paradigm of computational technology. Unlike any capital asset class we’ve seen before, blockchain-based, cryptographic digital assets are unique, both individually and collectively as an asset class, and as such the pre-existing models for evaluation don’t fit.
Paradigm is an investment firm focused on supporting the great crypto/Web3 companies and protocols of tomorrow. Our approach is flexible, long term, multi-stage, and global. We often get involved at the earliest stages of formation and support our portfolio with additional capital over time.
