You already know about the $150K+ prize pool. But do you know who's actually deciding who takes it home? For 10X Founders Demo Day v2.0 we didn't just fill six judge seats. We built a panel of people who've actually operated inside this industry, not just written checks into it - operators who've run exchange platforms, engineered tokenomics for billion-dollar protocols, and grown ecosystem TVL by billions in under a year. If your pitch has any soft spots, this is the room that finds them 🔍 Meet the panel: @Obsid1an_ - Associate Director, Investment & Strategic Partnership at @animocabrands Animoca Brands: 600+ portfolio companies, 20+ verticals, from gaming to RWA. Ian's focus is infrastructure and tokenization - he built Animoca's staking business and advises on tokenomics for a $2B gaming project. Expect questions that go deeper than the deck @r_m_evdokimov - Venture Partner at @ContributionCap A $30M pre-seed/seed fund backing infra, middleware and Fintech 3.0 (@lifiprotocol, @zkPass, @ethos_network and more). Roman spent 15+ years in marketing, BD and Web3 before this. Expect him to skip the buzzwords and test if you actually understand your own business @Ivantok4 - Founding Partner at @comma3vc ~$50M AUM, all-in on Sui this cycle - Ivan's team helped grow its TVL from $250M to $2.35B in under a year. Ex-TSMC engineer, 35+ exits, co-founder of Taiwan's first bitcoin treasury company. Expect him to stress test your tech as hard as your model @Chloeeewrx_ - Investment Director, Portfolio Manager & PR Director at @fenbushi Asia's first blockchain VC, founded 2015, ~$1.6B AUM, 300+ portfolio companies including Ethereum, Circle and Consensys. A decade of pattern recognition behind every question she asks @al_nechaev - Partner at @FundersVC Funders VC is a $20M AUM asset management firm operating at the intersection of venture and liquid DeFi - backing early-stage DeFi and RWA protocols while running delta-neutral and yield strategies in-house. Its portfolio includes Flying Tulip, Lighter, RAND and other emerging projects across the space @LafaMarino - Analyst at @ZeePrimeCap Investing since 2019 across early-stage startups and liquid markets (Polymarket, Solana, DeSci). Tadas' background is in research at the European Central Bank and Bank of Lithuania. If your pitch chases a trend instead of a real wedge, expect that to surface That's not a judge panel. That's six people who've actually built what they'll be judging you on 🎯 And one more thing worth saying out loud: pitching here isn't just about the $150K. Beyond the panel, a packed room of top-tier VCs, angel investors, and ecosystem partners will be tuning in as attendees. It's a shot in front of investors who'd normally take months of intros to reach individually, all in one room, on one day And time is officially ticking - there are only 7 days left to apply ⏳ In one week, applications close and "I'll do it later" won't be an option anymore. If your project is ready to be seen, now is the time 8 founders. 6 judges. One stage. August 25 🔥 🔗 Apply now: luma.com/mie9hpvt
