About Lawrence Diao

Haseeb Qureshi built an unconventional path into venture capital from being a world-class high-stakes online poker pro to software engineer to crypto VC, using skills like reading opponents, probabilistic thinking, and emotional discipline from poker to inform his investing approach in volatile crypto markets. He has built a large public audience through long-form essays on negotiation, careers, and crypto, becoming known as an "operator-educator" who can translate complex crypto concepts into accessible frameworks while positioning himself as a macro storyteller for where the crypto industry is heading.
