Toshi Kamei

I run Fracton Ventures, a company building the future of Ethereum from Japan. My other ventures are run by an organization of AI agents — I am the only human in it. I am also involved in the AI transformation of a medical corporation.

The time AI gives back goes to my family, and to meeting interesting people around the world. I write down what I actually did — the numbers and the failures.
