Can someone introduce me to a vc or angel that can help me with an exciting defi protocol I'm making

IMO go look for grants at the stage you’re at - deploy to mainnet get some volume and then go for VC funding 

Grants will also teach you good pitching that you don’t wanna experiment on VCs if contacts there are limited in the first place

Noted. currently applying for the arbitrum/uniswap grant on gitcoin. If you see any others lmk pls

Noted, meeting with monad people soon so hopefully they will help, although their defi ecosystem is nonexistent atm and I need a popular chain but we'll see what happens.

check out individual protocol websites and find their grant programs. for example the Blast Big Bang competition rn had massive incentives - obviously the newer the ecosystem the higher grant amounts, whereas something like Uniswap is way more selective
