VentureStaking lets anyone lock in future investing rights in ambitious, talented, and prepared entrepreneurs — only committing real capital once traction is proven.

The Reveal Period for VentureStaking from April 15 to July 31 has now concluded. So, it begs the question where do things go from here? .

Before we look ahead, I want to take a moment to reflect on what we accomplished together during this 100-day window and how much ground we covered.

293 VentureStakes were purchased during this period (our target was 250).
Over 50% of those were $25 or less, showing that this model resonates with the non-accredited investors in our target demographic, estimated to reach $2.4 Trillion in the coming years.
We were named #1 Fintech Product on Product Hunt.
We had the opportunity to present VentureStaking on the Cato Stage during a panel on Capital Formation.
Alts published an in-depth analysis of VentureStaking .
We ve received inbound interest from around the globe from people curious about this new system.
And perhaps most significantly the USPTO granted us exclusive rights to VentureStaking as both a noun and a verb.

Through my academic work and exposure to real-world funding models, VentureStaking® immediately clicked—it bridges the gap between visionary founders and early believers without forcing anyone to overcommit too early. The idea of creating optionality in venture investing—backed by real community skin in the game—is not just smart, it's structurally transformative. Doriot reframes the earliest, riskiest stage of startup life as a collaborative opportunity instead of a high-stakes bet. It's rare to see a model that aligns incentives this cleanly between founders, backers, and the broader startup ecosystem. Incredible work—excited to see where this goes next!

Incredible idea that seems like it can completely shift the game of VC. Great to see a company trying to give more people access to early-stage investing.

Impressive concept—framing early-stage investing like poker makes the model instantly relatable. VentureStaking lowers the barrier to entry while preserving real upside for backers, which could open up access to a much broader pool of investors. Excited to see how this evolves as more high-potential founders and strategic supporters get involved.
