He managed institutional crypto positions on spreadsheets and assumptions, then watched the market blow up. Now he is trying to rebuild the plumbing so it can't happen the same way twice.
Justin Kan
Justin Kan is a serial entrepreneur and investor best known as the co-founder of Twitch, the live streaming platform acquired by Amazon for $970 million in 2014. A Yale graduate who studied physics and philosophy, Kan pioneered lifecasting by wearing a camera 24/7 for Justin.tv in 2007, which evolved into Twitch and revolutionized gaming culture. He's launched multiple ventures including Socialcam (sold to Autodesk for $60M), served as a Y Combinator partner, and now invests through Goat Capital while building new companies in Web3, commerce, and music. Despite selling Twitch for nearly $1 billion, Kan has been candid about struggles with happiness, anxiety, and finding fulfillment beyond exits, making him a rare voice of authenticity in Silicon Valley's success-obsessed culture.
