Are There Sites Like Kickstarter That Return Profits to Investors?
Understanding Crowdfunding and Investments
Fundraising and investment are key activities to leverage resources for business growth. While traditional methods involve direct equity funding or loans, modern platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo allow individuals to leverage crowdfunding. Crowdfunding acts like pre-ordering products, where contributors receive rewards, often in the form of early access to products, limited edition items, or exclusive benefits. However, these platforms do not offer returns on investment through traditional ownership stakes or stock market growth.
Equity Crowdfunding: A New Avenue
In contrast, Equity Crowdfunding offers a unique approach where backers can invest in companies or projects, much like purchasing a tiny slice of a company’s pie. While traditional platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo focus more on reaching an MVP stage, equity crowdfunding platforms aim at generating returns for their investors. These platforms often promise a share of future profits or dividends. However, they also come with higher risk and are subject to regulatory frameworks.
Limited Returns in Traditional Crowdfunding
Contrary to equity crowdfunding, the typical crowdfunding platforms do not offer returns on investment. Contributors in crowdfunding are essentially believers in a specific project or product. They contribute funding with the hope that the project will succeed and produce the promised rewards. However, if the project fails to achieve its goals, contributors risk losing their contributions. Additionally, since these platforms do not offer ownership or stock market returns, contributors are focused on the tangible rewards like products or services rather than financial returns.
The Oryx Project: A New Approach to VC Investment
Recognising the limitations of traditional crowdfunding, our team co-founded the Oryx Project. The Oryx Project is a pioneering business model that aims to solves some of the critical issues within the venture capital (VC) funds industry. We have developed a comprehensive model that tackles liquidity issues, provides regular income, and addresses market expansion while making VC investment accessible to a broader range of investors.
Addressing Liquidity and Regular Income Issues
One of the most pressing issues for investors in VC funds is liquidity. Through tokenisation and our unique financial engineering model, we address this issue. Traditional VC funds often offer illiquid investments, meaning investors cannot easily sell their stake. Our model allows for regular dividend payouts, providing a steady stream of returns for investors. This makes the investment more appealing and accessible to a wider range of investors.
Enhancing Market Expansion and Investor Inclusiveness
The Oryx Project’s model is inclusive, allowing investors as low as $1,000 to participate in VC funds. We offer a subscription model that entices long-term investors who seek a more stable and predictable income. This inclusiveness helps in expanding the market and making high-risk VC investments more accessible.
Solving Missed Opportunities and Ensuring Fund Growth
The traditional model of VC funds often risks missed opportunities for investors interested in subscription-based funds. Through our model, investors can enter or exit the fund based on their outlook for fund performance. This flexibility ensures that investors do not miss out on promising investments and can adjust their investment strategies as needed.
Assuring On-Tap Funds and Protecting Owners' Equity
Scaling up investment needs often requires additional funding. Under the Oryx model, investee companies can raise further funds through our reserve tokens. This ensures that assured on-tap funds are available for growth, without the frequent dilution of equity that is common in subsequent funding rounds. The founders maintain their equity holdings, ensuring stability and continued ownership.
Facilitating Business Growth Through Community
The growing Oryxian community becomes the first set of customers for investee companies. This creates a win-win situation where the community benefits from the utility value, and the investee companies achieve their growth aspirations. The Oryxian ecosystem works towards creating value for all stakeholders, enhancing the overall viability and success of the investee companies.
