Different on many levels
Early liquidity 
  - Investments can eventually fail, but still return multiples in IRR 
  - Fund lifecycle can be 2-3 years
Different LPA structure, can you:
  - invest in liquid tokens?
  - Put called $$ in ETH / BTC? 
Risk management
  - DAOs, voting, staking, compliance, insurance etc etc

Right. Which means that a crypto VC can afford to invest in smaller outcomes that occur faster I think,.

Significantly. It makes the status quo (10 yr hold) less attractive.

Taking more risk in VC = betting on either more or less upside companies, so in theory a crypto VC can afford to invest in smaller outcomes.

Absolutely it does. Time to liquidity and public market access means you can likely take on more risk, imo. On most stages of investment up till Series B/C.
