Web3 venture studio tokenizing early-stage startup funding
Sheesha Finance operates a tokenized venture studio model where founders and investors participate via blockchain-based equity. The project list reveals a studio heavily weighted toward deal sourcing, tokenomics design, and partner network expansion—with minimal engineering headcount (1 role) and marketing-led operations (5 roles). Pain points center on token economy implementation and capital raising, suggesting the studio is still maturing its core product offering around tokenized fund mechanics.
