AngelList played an instrumental role in passing the JOBS Act of 2012 The JOBS Act allowed companies looking for capital to publicly solicit accredited investors, something not previously allowed, but perhaps more revolutionary, this new legislation allows non-accredited investors (the majority of the US population) to invest in startups for the very first time. This new opportunity came with-complicated legal requirements which called for a founder- and investor-friendly  platform to make startup investing truly accessible. We built Republic with that mission in mind. We’re SEC-registered, FINRA-licensed and part of a large family of startup platforms together with AngelList and Product Hunt. In 2017, we diversified our startup portfolio to include blockchain projects, becoming the first platform to offer a full-stack fundraising solution in the crypto space. We are now in the next stage of our development, which is the release of a token-based system to reward our community of investors, while promoting engagement and increasing visibility for the projects raising on our platform. Our intention was met with much enthusiasm when, last year, we conducted a pre-launch round with commitments from some of the biggest names in the crypto market, like Binance, NEO Global Capital, East Chain Co and others. So today, we are proud to announce the launch of our token, THE NOTE!

MEET THE NOTE


Meet the Note — a digital token by Republic,
rewarding you for growing the startup ecosystem.

This feature is a work in progress and not guaranteed, but existing Note holders will be the first to know (and benefit) This post and our Note homepage are the most comprehensive sources of answers to any questions you may have about the Note

1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526272829303132333412345678910111213141 516171819202122232425262728293031323334 Talent is evenly distributed — opportunity is not. We launched Republic in 2016 inspired by this adage, and since then, a lot has changed.   Since our launch, more than 100 founders have successfully raised capital to grow their businesses and create new jobs, from blockchain projects like PROPS to barbershop software like theCut. Over 25% of these startups were venture-backed at the time of their Republic campaign, and many have raised further funding at a premium.   This entrepreneurial movement is made possible by over 100,000 investors of all backgrounds, deploying as little as $10 to $75,000 towards Republic-curated projects. While these investors diversify their portfolios into the next startup success stories, they’re also diversifying the talent pool: over 50% of all capital raised on Republic funded female and minority founders.   We’re proud of our progress to connect the masses with ambitious startups deals, while helping founders build the future. Public adoption of startup investing helps everyone profit from progress — but how quickly it happens starts with you, and it’ll take everyone.   That’s why today, we’re introducing a simple blockchain-powered token to reward millions of present and future Republic users for every action they take towards our common mission: to help everyone participate in creating the future, and to let them benefit from its success.   Meet the Note — a new digital asset earned for growing the startup ecosystem. Note holders get access to exclusive perks that improve the Republic experience on and off-platform, and eventually, they may be eligible for a share of our revenue.   Below is everything you need to know to claim your cut the Note pool we’re giving away.     Note Frequently Asked Questions OK — so what is the Note?   The Note is a digital asset that’s earned and stored on Republic. You can’t sell Notes on a crypto exchange or otherwise move them off the platform - they’re just not liquid, though we hope to change that.   Think of Notes as “startup loyalty points” used to unlock perks both on and off the Republic platform — except unlike frequent flyer miles or loyalty programs, the Note is the technical and legal foundation for something much greater. More on that later. Here’s what it’s not: It’s not a security, it’s not a utility token, it’s not equity and it does not represent any claim to earnings, profit, or assets.   You can find much more answers and questions on our website! JOIN US: Disclaimer: Although the Note may not at this time constitute a “security” under our view of applicable laws and regulations, Republic is conforming to the standards of testing the waters under Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“the Act”). This process allows companies to determine whether there may be interest in an eventual offering of its securities. Republic is not under any obligation to make an offering under Regulation A. Republic may choose to make an offering to some, but not all, of the people who indicate an interest in investing, and that offering may not be made under Regulation A. For example, Republic may determine to proceed with an offering under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D, in which case we will only offer our securities to accredited investors as defined by Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. If and when Republic conducts an offering under Regulation A, it will do so only once (i) it has filed an offering statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), (ii) the SEC has qualified such offering statement and (iii) investors have subscribed to the offering in the manner provided for in the offering statement.  The information in the offering statement will be more complete than the test-the-waters materials and could differ in important ways.  You must read the offering statement filed and qualified with the SEC. No money or other consideration is being solicited for our Regulation A+ offering at this time and if sent in to Republic will not be accepted.  No offer to buy securities in a Regulation A+ offering of Republic can be accepted and no part of the purchase price can be received until Republic offering statement is qualified with the SEC. Any such offer to buy securities may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time before notice of its acceptance given after the qualification date.  Any indications of interest in Republic offering involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.

The passage of time is merciless. An unremarkable life at the bleak pace of "Home-Work, Work-Home" is a lot for those who long ago buried all their dreams and ambitions. But I'm not one of them. For me, investing is an opportunity to break out of the closed, dull circle of actions brought to automatism. A chance to fill life with colors and bring it to a whole new level.

I specialize in investing in cryptocurrency and ICO projects. Therefore, your work has created an excellent tool for me, thanks to which I can better manage my investments and receive income from them.

I am a writer. This is an interesting job, but in my country, it is difficult to earn a living with books alone. High competition, and to create "pass-through" books, with a simple format plot, written in exact replica of some of the same second-rate but marketable novel - I do not want and do not know how to create such books. Therefore, it is much more difficult for me to earn money than the authors of novels about sexually preoccupied demons and vampires of the type from Twilight.

But I came to the aid of investing. At first I was content with only traditional instruments, but very soon my attention was attracted by cryptocurrency.
There were mistakes, but I still managed to overcome them and find a few profitable projects!

Investing is a great opportunity to do what you love, without regard to society. Thanks to your project for a convenient tool for investing.

Preparing for a Security Token Offering (STO) or a traditional token sale? Need help navigating tokenized equity or tokenized real estate?

Republic provides consulting services on capital raising and tokenization of traditional assets.

Republic offers an in-house streamlined compliance service for fundraising. KYC, AML, Reg CF, Reg D, Reg S, Reg A+.

[Caliastra]

In May 2016, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) enacted Title III of the JOBS Act, allowing a majority of the US population to invest in startups for the very first time. But the complicated legal requirements called for a founder- and investor-friendly platform to make startup investing truly accessible.

That’s why we built Republic. We’re SEC-registered and FINRA-licensed, and if you’re at all interested in startups, you’ve heard of our past work. Republic is part of a family of startup platforms together with AngelList and Product Hunt — one of the most trusted online startup ecosystems in the world.

We launched our equity investing platform in 2016, and didn’t stop there. Just over a year ago, we created Republic Crypto, providing the first full stack fundraising solution in the crypto space. This year we are excited to introduce Republic Labs, an affiliated investment advisory service.

We have garnered a reputation as an industry leader in the regulated crowdfunding space and continue to innovate and iterate toward our mission to democratize startup fundraising and investing.

[republic.sup]

How can I communicate with the startup I have invested in?

The rule states that all communications relating to your crowdfunding investment must be in writing, through Republic.

After you invest in the company, the founders can message your via a private message, but these communications can not contain any material information about the company that's not included on the public campaign page.

All communications containing or requesting new material information about the company or its business must be public and visible to all prospective investors.

On Republic, public communications can happen on the discussion section of each campaign or in the comments to the company's public updates.

[republic.sup]

What is the minimum investment amount?

Each company sets their own minimum investment amount. Republic’s platform-wide minimum is $10.

[republic.sup]

Can I sell my share in a startup?

You’re allowed to sell your stake in a crowdfunding investment starting one year after your investment is provided to you, and earlier under some circumstances.

However, there’s no guarantee that someone will be willing to buy it at that point.

[republic.sup]

What payment methods does the project support?

Republic supports credit and debit cards, ACH transfers from US bank accounts and wire transfers from any, including international, bank accounts.

[republic.sup]

Can I make investments using several payment methods?

While Republic supports multiple payment methods, you can only use one payment method per investment.

[republic.sup]

If I invest in a company and they cannot achieve their financing goal, will the investments be returned?

Yes, if a company fails to meet their funding goal all investments in that company will be cancelled and refunded

[republic.sup]

Can I cancel my investment and get a refund?

You can cancel a Republic investment and receive a refund up until 48 hours before the campaign deadline, after which point your investment is final. Republic considers reducing your investment commitment to be equivalent to cancelling your investment and making a new one, this means you cannot reduce your investment commitment during the final 48 hours of a campaign, subject to each issuing company's discretion.

[republic.sup]

Should I be a US citizen to invest?

No, there is no citizenship requirement to invest and Republic is open to anyone over 18.
Each company on Republic determines what types of investors they will accept, check each deal page for details.

[Capipastra]

Absolutely before you engage in some projects you must research first the project itself and look for the credibility of the project, trusted ratings and even the remarks of the people. It is the basic fundamental of investment so be aware and does not be impulsive on your investment.

[Ananksunamun]

The main thing to see the result in the business team is excellent, but to achieve success you need to have the market accepted.

[DivinityEgo]

Thats right, I also suggest that study Republic project, read the site, check their teams and join the telegram channel, So you will be updated and can ask if you have questions about the project. You will discover how trustworthy this project is. Goodluck
