Republic's own
digital security

Republic is uniquely positioned within the private investing ecosystem, leveraging its various partners, communities, and investors to scale and grow. Republic Notes sit at the heart of the Republic ecosystem and capture some of its value.

Each Republic Note gives its holder fractional ownership of the profits from investments made by certain lines of businesses within Republic. 

A  global private investing platform

Republic has provided access to hundreds of investment opportunities across startups, gaming, real estate, & crypto

Today, the Republic ecosystem has facilitated:

• Over $1 billion in investments,

• From more than 2 million global community members,

• From more than 100 countries around the world.

As we grow as a firm and pursue more exclusive investment opportunities, the Republic Note exemplifies our ongoing commitment to democratizing venture capital by creating an opportunity for the Republic community to share in a portion of Republic’s future success.

The Republic Note is issued by Republic Core, an entity within the Republic Ecosystem responsible for providing technology and business services powering the entire ecosystem.

How do Republic Note holders make money?

Republic Note is a profit-sharing digital security that gives investors a derivative right to the economic upside of certain business lines within the Republic ecosystem.

Liquidity events

When certain companies in which Republic has invested have an exit that generates cash proceeds, a portion accrues to Republic Notes.

Dividends

Every time the accrual reaches $2M in aggregate, pro-rata distributions will be made to all holders of Republic Notes.

Limited quantity

No more than 800 million Republic Notes will ever be minted, and 30% of them are locked until 2023. Because supply is finite, if demand for Republic Notes rises, then their value may rise.

Own a part of our portfolio's successes

Republic has the potential to realize profits each time one of the companies we invested in or helped fundraise—past, present, and future—gets acquired at a premium or goes public. Portions of the profits from these investments will get distributed to Republic Note holders.

Republic: A Global Ecosystem

---

The Republic Note sits at the center of Republic, an ecosystem of businesses working to create a world where investment and ownership are truly accessible to everyone, everywhere. Started with a retail funding portal, Republic has since expanded into a full-stacked investment ecosystem that also services private businesses across sectors with institutional and accredited-only financing products. Our different business lines have facilitated in total over $1B in gross transaction volume since 2012.

Figures represented are reported as estimates from each business line and have not been audited. Figures include the volume transacted through Seedrs, which was acquired by Republic in September 2022. No offerings hosted by Seedrs or any Republic affiliates, other than OpenDeal Portal LLC and Republic Maximal LLC and its subsidiaries, contributes to the Republic Note.

In 2021, Republic closed two funding rounds, including a $36M Series A round in March led by Galaxy Interactive and a $150M Series B round in November led by Valor Equity Partners. Leveraging this momentum for growth, Republic announced the acquisition of UK equity crowdfunding business Seedrs in December 2021, jointly becoming the world’s first global private investment platform.
