“I have genuinely enjoyed working with Sky9 Capital, and especially with Ron. What really stands out is Ron’s depth of experience across both mainstream startups and crypto/web3—it’s a rare combination, and it shows in how thoughtfully he engages with founders. He brings a huge network, long, respected track record in crypto and investments, along with a very grounded, founder-first approach. Working with Ron and the Sky9 team has been a consistently positive and rewarding experience.”
