Current Landscape in Funding Early Stage Ventures

Traditional crowdfunding portals are plagued with inefficiencies and bloated cost models:

  • High costs: pay-to-list fees and ongoing compliance overhead. Web2 Unit Economics are $2-4 per individual investor KYC

    • WHY FISH NETWORK WINS: web3 Unit Economics are ~0$ per investor KYC by building on (almost) free web3 developer tooling. Compliance is built into the investment agreement.

  • Poor match quality: high-quality issuers avoid the portals, leaving lower-signal deals to dominate.

    • WHY FISH NETWORK WINS: Investors are organized into theme specific Fish Schools, allowing people to collaborate and invest around shared interests.

  • Investor friction: decision-making is hampered by lack of transparency and uncertain liquidity.

    • WHY FISH NETWORK WINS: Investors are organized into investment clubs, streamlining accessibility to non-accredited investors.
