In addition to the terms and quotas that need to be considered, before investing, VCs/institutions usually conduct DD (due diligence), one key criterion of which is team background investigation.
Inspired and referenced by Teacher Touyan, I have compiled the team members' background chart from public information. After organizing it, I found that there are still some misunderstandings in the Chinese community. A clear chart is presented to help everyone understand for reference.
Conclusion:
1. Boundless and RiscZero, which raised 80 million USD, have a direct parent-subsidiary relationship. Boundless founder Shiv Shankar previously served as the engineering vice president of RiscZero.
2. The rumors of an Indian company are inconsistent with the facts. Both founders of RiscZero have worked in the core tech circles of the United States (Google, Intel) and are from Seattle, USA. The CEO of Boundless primarily has academic and work experience in the United States.
Personal opinion: One cannot solely judge the quality of a project based on the CEO's background. The increasing influence of Chinese and Indian individuals in the cryptocurrency field is an objective fact.
