The TLDR is that the OP thinks it's very "sus" that one of the founders for Reddit's latest Series F round is hard to find any information for.
- The investor, Khaira Capital is run by "Jivteshwar Khaira" who is allegedly an 18yo "Wonderkid", his linked in just has a picture of a Rolex watch
- The other "employees" of the company are also blank
- The website is mostly blank
- There are a few news articles about him, but two are duplicates, the one I read sounds like it was a PR publication.
- There is someone called "Sukhpal Singh Khaira" who is allegedly a drug kingpin, no idea if they are related.
As someone else said, it sounds like a wealthy family office.
- benrapscallion 4y agoFWIW, Khaira (more commonly spelled Khera) is a common North Indian surname. So simply googling Khaira and connecting to any other Khaira is in some ways like googling John Smith.

- mik3y 4y agoYeah, I tend to agree with the "anonymous family office" take (assuming it's even a legit investor - never heard of this viz Reddit's F) vs some shadowy state actor conspiracy. Thought it might be fun to pick over on HN nonetheless, because a big ~anonymous investor in a social network seemed interesting in light current events at $TWTR.
