Happy holidays to all of our Daily Stack readers. Thank you for your support this past year. The circulating memes in my friend group chat have all encouraged me to find time to relax during this holiday break. I hope you can as well.

Each week, we've been highlighting the investors whose tastes and preferences decide the fate of hopeful entrepreneurs all over the world. You tuned in to learn about VC partner backgrounds, areas of expertise, and the business trends into which they're investing.


Here's a look back on our most popular investor highlights:

                                  
Honorable Mention: Shark Tank edition
#1 Those who can't do, teach. Those who have done, invest. This concept would sum up our article on the Founder/Executive pipeline to VC investing we covered with Bain Capital's latest hire.

#2 Who is crazy enough to get on board with the Wild West of investing? Apparently, all of the biggest Silicon Valley investors. Find out which investors are hungry for NFT startups.

#3 Hedge funds and other non-traditional investors are contributing to the obscene amount of capital raised this year. Refresh your memory on Coatue Management & Hedge Fund VC.

#4 It's no secret that venture capital is a highly male-dominated space, with only 2.3% of all money going to women founders. Many of you tuned in to read about Female Founders Fund's mission to increase venture capital decision makers and investments in women. 

#5 Despite controversial political leanings, PayPal's founder Peter Thiel boasts an excellent track record for investments. Check out those investments on our coverage of the Founders Fund.
