Gate Square, hot topic, April 9
What unicorn would you like to see in Pre-IPO format on Gate?
I would like to see SpaceX, Stripe, and Discord. These are companies with huge fundamentals and demand among retail investors. Especially SpaceX — their Starlink and Starship are shaping the future, and shares are currently only available through private funds. Also interested in Revolut (fintech + crypto-friendly) and OpenAI (if they go public in the coming years).
2️⃣ What advantages do you see in Gate's digital participation model?
Main benefits:
· Low entry barrier — no need to be an accredited investor with $200k+
· Liquidity before IPO — the ability to trade Pre-IPO tokens, locking in profits or reducing losses before the official listing
· Transparency and speed — everything is on-chain, no need to go through complicated paperwork via a broker
· Early price discovery — the market will show a fair valuation even before the company goes public
3️⃣ Would you add such a “crypto-equity” model to your portfolio?
Yes, but wisely. I would allocate no more than 10-15% of the portfolio to Pre-IPO tokens, considering them as a venture part. It’s a great way to diversify between crypto and traditional assets. However, it’s important to remember the risks: IPO cancellation, withdrawal freezes, or discrepancies between token price and actual stock. So, no due diligence — no way.
