Why Buying IPO Shares Is Exit Liquidity for VCs - And Why Security Tokens Are the Future
April 15, 2025
Bitcoin changed money. Now it's time to change investing.
Why Buying IPO Shares Is Exit Liquidity for VCs - And Why Security Tokens Flip the Script
Most people still believe buying shares in an IPO is how you "invest early."
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Look at Circle-the company behind USDC-now filing for IPO on the NYSE:
$1.6 billion in annual revenue
Valuation likely in the $4–5 billion range
But here's what they don't tell you.
The real gains? Already captured by early VCs like General Catalyst, Accel, and Fidelity.
Retail investors? They're the exit liquidity.
How The Game Really Works
VCs invest early
Insiders grow the company
IPO opens
Public buys in late at a premium
Early investors sell into that demand
But there's a revolution happening.
Enter Security Tokens: The Power Shift
A new generation of financial products is emerging-built to be owned by users, not just insiders.
Security tokens offer something radically different:
Access from day one
Fractional ownership
Participation from €50 up
Global participation
Transparent on-chain settlement
Upside aligned with usage, not privilege
The Choice Is Clear
Old World (IPOs): Closed-door deals, delayed access, late-stage entry
New World (Security Tokens): Open, digital, user-first
The Simple Truth
The stock market is where VCs exit. The token economy is where users enter.
Don't just hold Bitcoin. Own the future.
Jump in and be part of the revolution where investments are shaped by and for the everyman, not just a select few insiders. It's a new era for ownership that puts you in the driver’s seat. Wouldn’t you want to be there?
