TO THE MOON AND THE MoMA: D1 Capital Founder Daniel Sundheim Is Buying SpaceX, AI, And CryptoPunks!

From rocket ships and artificial intelligence to digital art. One of Wall Street's biggest fund managers is betting on SpaceX, Anthropic, OpenAI and... CryptoPunks after adding another hoodie wearing Punk to his collection, bringing his total to 35.

On Friday, D1 Capital Partners founder Daniel Sundheim, whose firm has $11 billion USD in assets under management, purchased a hoodie wearing CryptoPunk for 140 ETH, or $243,000 USD.

 

With the purchase, Sundheim now owns 35 CryptoPunks, 20 of which he has added to his collection over the past week alone, according to OpenSea.

Take a look at his Punks below:

 

While we do not know why Sundheim has been on a CryptoPunks shopping spree lately, we do know that he purchased his first CryptoPunk on January 19, 2026, and that it has been his profile picture on X ever since. So it's safe to say he's bullish on these pixelated people!

Tonight, we don't know whether Sundheim is finished buying CryptoPunks, but we do know he has the Ethereum loaded up in his wallet to continue.

Between his two known wallets, Sundheim currently holds nearly $700,000 USD worth of ETH and USDC, according to Etherscan data.

 

The Gazette will continue to follow Sundheim and will let you know what he does next onchain. Stay tuned for updates!
