The Fundraising Problem

Traditional Equity

Founders can issue successive dilutive rounds, but investors are locked in for years.
  • Funds locked for 5-10 years until IPO/Exit
  • Proven model for growth companies
  • Limited to accredited investors/VCs

Traditional Tokens

Great for early liquidity, but often become "dead weight" with bad tokenomics.
  • Early liquidity via warrants/TGE
  • Post-TGE tokens often become dead weight
  • Founder becomes "cheerleader" of dead instrument

Founders need a tool that enables growth-centric fundraising while giving investors early liquidity.

Introducing Venture Tokens

Growth equity meets DeFi liquidity

Venture Tokens represent governance over a treasury holding your company's SAFE. Investors get tradable tokens. You get flexible, dilutive fundraising without the baggage of traditional tokenomics.

For Founders

  • Raise via "Community Rounds" without half-baked tokenomics
  • Successive dilutive rounds like traditional equity
  • DAO controls token decisions, NOT company decisions
  • Optional community engagement on your terms

For Investors

  • Access to liquidity whenever you want
  • Track upside through rights to equity liquidation
  • Access to top-tier deals
  • No KYC required for trading

For Both

  • Cleaner cap tables (SPV consolidation)
  • Market-driven price discovery
  • Transparent treasury governance
  • Aligned long-term incentives

The Community Round Journey

From application to liquidity in 5 simple steps

Founder Applies

Submit your fundraising round details. Choose how much of your raise to tokenize.

Example: Founder Bob raises $500k at $5m val. Allocates $200k through Seedplex to Venture DAO

Venture DAO Launches

Seedplex creates a dedicated Venture DAO (SPV) for your SAFE with custom terms and transfer restrictions.

Community Invests

Community pledges capital to fund the SAFE. A 10% fee builds initial liquidity pools.

$220k raised → $200k for SAFE, $20k for liquidity

Treasury Holds Equity

Deal executes. The SAFE sits in the Venture DAO treasury. Tokens gate Venture DAO membership that represent governance rights over the treasury.

Trade or Redeem

Tokens trade freely. Upon liquidity events (IPO/Acquisition), holders redeem for proceeds (Venture DAO membership and KYC required).

Follow-On Rounds

Issue new SAFEs at higher valuations. Existing token holders vote to expand the treasury.
