RockawayX is a Prague-based crypto venture fund operating as the blockchain investment arm of the Rockaway Group, a Central European internet and technology holding company. The fund focuses on early-stage Web3 projects across DeFi, infrastructure, and consumer applications, with a global investment mandate backed by European operational roots.
The broader Rockaway Group was co-founded by Viktor Fischer, who has led the firm's expansion into digital assets. RockawayX was established to give the group dedicated exposure to blockchain-native opportunities, separating crypto bets from traditional tech holdings. The fund targets seed and Series A rounds, typically taking active board or advisory roles in portfolio companies. Public information about total AUM and fund size remains limited, though the firm has confirmed multiple fund vehicles since inception.
Notable investments
RockawayX has built a portfolio of approximately 11 projects spanning multiple blockchain ecosystems. Confirmed or widely reported investments include:
- Solana ecosystem projects – the fund has backed several builders on Solana during its 2021–2022 growth phase
- DeFi protocols – early positions in decentralized finance infrastructure, particularly in the Ethereum and multi-chain space
- Web3 developer tooling – investments in infrastructure that supports application builders
Public information about the full named portfolio is limited. The fund reports a retail ROI of approximately 33%, which is consistent with mid-tier venture performance across the 2021–2024 crypto cycle.
Team
Viktor Fischer leads the Rockaway Group and has been the key figure driving the crypto strategy. Beyond Fischer, specific managing partner names and backgrounds for the RockawayX entity are not widely disclosed in public sources. The team draws on the broader Rockaway Group's network across Central and Eastern Europe.
Recent activity
RockawayX has maintained a measured pace through the 2023–2024 bear and recovery cycle, avoiding the aggressive overdeployment that hurt several competing funds. No major fund closes or high-profile exits have been publicly announced in the 12–18 months to mid-2026. Public information on new commitments made in 2025–2026 is limited.
With 11 portfolio companies and a positive ROI through a difficult cycle, RockawayX sits in a solid position relative to many peers. Its Central European base gives it sourcing advantages in a region producing an increasing share of Web3 engineering talent. Further growth will depend on whether it can expand AUM and attract larger co-investors for follow-on rounds.
