a16z CSX is the early-stage accelerator program launched by a16z Crypto to support visionary Web3 founders at the pre-seed and seed stage. Built for crypto-native builders, CSX combines capital investment with mentorship, legal support, and direct access to the full a16z Crypto ecosystem. The program targets teams building core blockchain infrastructure, developer platforms, decentralized protocols, and new crypto-enabled user experiences.
The CSX investment thesis is centered on backing founders who are innovating at the protocol and application layers—those who are rethinking coordination, value exchange, and identity on the internet. With structured cohorts, deep product guidance, and technical resources, CSX enables startups to move from idea to traction-ready ventures.
Unlike traditional VC, a16z CSX is designed as a builder-first accelerator, embedding teams into a Web3-native community of operators, engineers, and investors. It serves as a launchpad for the next wave of decentralized innovation.
