Ember Fund | Investor Update

Hi Republic Family,

As you may already know, we closed a $5.3 million seed round towards the end of March from Uncorrelated Ventures, Anthos Capital, Brian Dilley (ex-CTO of TikTok/Blockfolio) and Calm Ventures. These are some of the same early backers of Honey ($4B exit to Paypal), Headspace, Compound, MakerDao, UMA, Cosmos, dYdX and more.

It has been quite the journey since our first raise with you, and we would not be here if it weren’t for your early contribution and continued support. Thank you for sticking with us in our journey to bring institutional grade financial products to everyday investors.

In the coming months, we are excited to announce that we will be raising another round through Republic. The capital from this raise will help us continue scaling.

If you would like to help us have another successful round, feel free to share your experience with Ember Fund on the Apple Store or Play Store. This will help new users and investors understand what Ember is all about. You can leave a review here.

Once you've posted your review, send us a screenshot and your Bitcoin wallet address! We are more than happy to send you $20 worth of BTC as a thank you.

Also, our new proposed valuation means that your initial investment has gone up 20-30x . Please note that this is paper value for the moment, but will convert to stock should there be a liquidity event in the future.

Thank you for joining us in building the future of decentralized finance.

Cheers,

Alex

When do we get some sort of return on our investment through Republic? Or was this just a scheme?

Hi Alex! Happy and Healthy New Year! I've been meaning to shout out to you, and will also on the App stores, how amazing Ember has become!

I always felt it was innovative and unique approach, in bringing institutional-type crypto products for retail investors to consider-as all of these were new to me when I first invested in the Ember campaign.

As I've tried dozens of exchanges, apps, etc. I recently logged in to the current app after way too long of a time away for me, and it is Brilliant!! So far advanced compared to most....ill try to come up with a better way to explain my amazement on public forums though, but I needed to take this opportunity, even if sound stsr-struck or something along those lines!!

Bravo, Alex and team!!

Hello Alex,

Thank you so much for your excellent updates. In regards to where you say “your initial investment has gone up 20-30x”, I invested back in early January of last year. Is the “initial investment” in reference to the round of funding that took place during that time? Please try to get back to me if possible and again thank you.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the update. I just thought about this - will our Crowd SAFE would be converted into equity soon, assuming that the $5.3m seed round valuation exceeded our previous cap?

Kind regards,
Kai

Alex Wang @mario-teel-jr Great question. This was also done on a SAFE so it will not. We're aiming to raise a series A at some point, so it will convert once we have a priced round. Hope this helps!
