GCR 2.0: Announcement
(this page is live and was last updated: Jan 27, 2023)
Â
Dear GCR Members â
Thank you again for your continued love and support for GCR. And more importantly, a big thank you to each and every one of you for being such an integral part of our community.
Since GCR launched, weâve grown tremendously. With 7,000+ members and 30%+ MoM growth in membership, weâve deployed $40M+ as an investment DAO in 60+ deals.
We want to continue to push the boundaries of investing by setting the standard for how powerful community-driven investing can be. To that end, we are constantly looking for ways to improve the membership experience. GCR 2.0 is the first of many upgrades to come!

NEW: GCR Membership Upgrade Program

NEW: GCR Deal Dashboard
Â
As our deal offerings grow, so does the need to systemize and track all opportunities that are available at GCR. That is why weâve come up with a live database that is constantly being updated by our Deal Leads and is now available to the community.
We also have a new BFF! Meet "Flamey" the Deal Concierge (feel free to use this sticker any time you want!)
The âGCR Deal Dashboardâ can be accessed here.

Â
NEW: GCR Angel Network
Â
Announcing ongoing support for GCR Portfolio Companies and new projects looking to raise in the Web3 space.
The Purpose of the GCR Angel Network is to tap into the power of Community Members to support our Portfolio Companies (âPortCosâ) and new projects. In return for their contributions, members are eligible to be rewarded a portion of the investment carry in the projects theyâve helped.
Â
We are proud to release the following features of the GCR Angel Network:
- âAngel Podsâ (Marketing, Recruiting, Investment DAO), where âWeb3 Nativeâ members can support Portfolio Companies for a portion of the investment carry
- âOffice Hoursâ where our founding teams can be mentored by our experienced Partners
