According to the Wall Street Journal, the move opens up opportunities for ordinary investors. The goal is to get them involved early in the blockchain startup lifecycle
For example, Monad will initially sell tokens through this pre-listing platform. Let’s take a closer look at Coinbase.
Early Access Token Sale: A Game Changer for Investors
Traditionally, only venture capitalists or institutional investors were able to purchase tokens before they were listed on an exchange. Coinbase’s new platform aims to level this playing field by giving retail investors early exposure to promising projects. This is worth noting because early-stage investments often offer higher potential returns, but also increased risk.
For example, Monad, the platform’s first blockchain startup, is a project focused on enhancing the privacy and security of decentralized applications. By offering tokens before going public, Monad can raise funds more efficiently and attract a wider base of supporters.
Token activation has been significantly improved.
