PreStocks tokenizes shares of pre‑IPO companies, issuing on‑chain tokens that are fully backed by special‑purpose vehicle exposure to the underlying equity. Investors can buy, hold, and trade these tokens on supported decentralized exchanges without minimum investment thresholds, gaining economic exposure to firms such as SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI before they list publicly. The platform generates revenue through token issuance fees and transaction fees on secondary market trades.

Problem
Investors seeking exposure to high‑growth private companies face high entry thresholds, illiquid secondary markets, and the need for complex legal structures, which limit participation to institutional or accredited players.
Solution
PreStocks creates on‑chain tokens that represent a 1:1 economic stake in pre‑IPO private company shares held in special‑purpose vehicles (SPVs). By minting these SPV‑backed tokens on the Solana blockchain, the platform delivers fractional exposure with no minimum investment and enables 24/7 peer‑to‑peer trading through decentralized exchanges. The tokens inherit the underlying company valuation, and price updates are derived from the SPV’s audited share ledger, providing transparent market data. Users can acquire, hold, and transfer tokens via standard crypto wallets, while the ecosystem integrates with leading Solana DEX aggregators (Jupiter, Titan, DFlow) and analytics tools. Optional redemption to USDC is supported, allowing investors to liquidate their exposure under predefined conditions.
Target Audience
Crypto‑savvy investors and wealth managers seeking diversified exposure to pre‑IPO private companies, as well as accredited participants outside restricted jurisdictions who prefer on‑chain, fractional investment vehicles.
