KYLE LIBRA

I've spent my career building products at early and growth-stage companies, mostly in fintech and crypto. I started as an engineer, moved into product, and have had two exits along the way. I like the messy, high-stakes part of company building: figuring out what to make, who it's for, and how to get it out the door before the opportunity window closes.

From 2019 to 2025 I worked at financial market infrastructure provider Paxos where I worked on a lot of interesting things, from stablecoins to the tokenization of gold to eventually leading the Brokerage business. It was a front-row seat to rapid evolution of an industry.

Today I'm a Partner at Gravity Labs, the incubation arm of Defy.vc, where I invest in and incubate early stage startups.

Outside of work I like to build things for fun, ski as much as possible, and am deeply into Formula 1 and sim racing.
