Who We Are

Unbounded Capital invests in technical founders building the data and (micro)payments infrastructure needed for trends like real-world asset tokenization, next-gen social media/content monetization, and privacy-focused identity to become realities.

We are often the first institutional check & invest globally.

We do not invest in companies that have material exposure to crypto.

Fund III Thesis: The infrastructure companies that execute on micropayments will massively grow the payments market & capture a large portion of new & existing online commerce.

Zach Resnick

Managing Partner

Zach Resnick co-founded Unbounded Capital with Dan Rosen in 2018. He is also a founder of poker education and content company Just Hands Poker and of discounted biz/first class flight concierge service FlyFlat. During his early 20s, Zach made a living from playing cash games and investing in other poker players, providing a unique understanding of risk management that is largely shaped through leveraging volatility to outperform others in the high-risk high-reward situations of poker. In 2016 Zach made his first personal investment in Bitcoin and began a disciplined due diligence process for investing in cryptoassets. He then began managing founding partner Dan Rosen’s capital and the continued success investing gave them the confidence and capital to start the firm in the SF bay area, officially launching in August of 2018.
