Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJason Arnold is a strategic crypto and digital-assets leader with 11 years of tech and legal-adjacent experience and over 7 years focused in blockchain, DeFi, and ecosystem growth. He has led ecosystem strategy and partnerships for major protocols (NEAR, THORChain, Sei) and built grant and funding programs, developer pipelines, and capital strategies that scaled TVL and onboarding across multiple chains. Currently directing digital asset strategy at VentureDNA, he combines product, venture, and risk-management experience to design portfolio construction and tooling for PE funds, family offices, and HNWIs. Jason’s background in computer science and patent-focused legal roles gives him an uncommon edge in translating complex crypto primitives into fundable, compliant products. He’s equally at home pitching investors as he is coordinating cross-chain liquidity and developer relations, and he consistently surfaces practical, capital-efficient paths from prototype to adoption. Based in Chicago, he pairs deep technical chops with hands-on ecosystem-building to help projects reach mainstream users.
