8VC DSS III, L.P., a venture capital fund, filed a Form D with the SEC on Oct. 22 reporting a $400 million offering with $0 sold to date.

The $400 million is the amount the fund registered to offer, not the amount it has raised. Joseph Lonsdale is listed as a related person.

For allocators, the filing is a starting point for the questions that decide a commitment: fees, minimum investment, strategy and first-sale date.
