However, there are more commercial and investing relationships between 16z crypto and other companies that Andreessen Horowitz invested in. For example, the crypto fund invested in Coinbase which at the same time, it invested in companies that a16z has also invested. This is the case of Compound or Celo, for example.

Some of these companies invested again in companies that a16z was already investing, as mentioned before with Coinbase. And there are other companies that Andreessen Horowitz is investing indirectly, such as Starkware. Starkware received investments from Metastable, Polychain and Coinbase Ventures.
The research made by The Block aims at providing clarity to the market, allowing companies and individuals to understand how one of the most prominent investment firms is taking decisions in such a volatile market.
