exposure to the broader digital asset ecosystem

Get Started

Our Story

Meeting in their first year at the Wharton MBA program, Managing Partners Chris Smalley and Nitin Manivasagan quickly bonded over their perspectives on digital assets. Each brought unique insights from their past careers in finance and computer science. They knew that both industries would transform from digital assets and blockchain technology over the coming decades
‍
They founded 1881 Capital Partners with this idea in mind and wanted education to be integral to their business so that clients understood the value of this transformative technology. As an homage to their own education, "1881" was the year that Wharton was founded (and a palindrome - a nod to cryptography). Education and transparency remain core to their values as the 1881 Capital team hopes to shed light on this cryptic technology
