High Fidelity was co-founded by Philip Rosedale, Ryan Downe Karpf, and Irena Freidrica Heiberger. The company originally operated as an open-source distributed social-VR platform, complete with blockchain-based identity, digital-asset registration, property systems, and its own U.S.-dollar-pegged stablecoin, High Fidelity Coin, fixed at 100 HFC to 1 USD. In May 2019, the company laid off roughly 25% of its staff and pivoted away from headset-dependent social VR toward virtual meetings and 3D audio, which remains its core focus today.
High Fidelity raised a $35 million Series D in June 2018, led by Galaxy Digital Ventures, which included a $20 million contribution from the Galaxy EOS Ecosystem Fund. The company has been backed by a broad group of investors including Blockchain Capital, Breyer Capital, GV, HTC, IDG Capital Partners, Kapor Capital, Linden Lab, True Ventures, and Vulcan Capital. In January 2022, High Fidelity made an investment in Linden Lab and transferred employees and patents as part of a broader partnership. High Fidelity was formerly affiliated with the Virtual Reality Blockchain Alliance.
