Buidler Application: Tracy Shi

Self-introduction and your profession

I am a self-driven quick learner, a crypto enthusiast, and a seasoned investor with 5 years of crypto investment experience and hands-on project operation, BD, and marketing skills.

After graduating from University of Glasgow with a master degree in accountancy, I worked in the traditional financial industry for more than 6 years and started my blockchain journey in January 2018 serving as a partner and Chief Strategic Officer of a crypto wallet project Qbao Network. I joined a crypto venture capital, Waterdrip Capital, as the managing partner in September 2020, interviewed more than 1000 blockchain start-up founders, and invested in 150+ projects. I have served as a panelist or judge in several hackathons and roadshow events. Most of my investees brought very good revenue to our fund and appreciated my all-around help along the road.
