An angel investor, personal funding or venture capital were the main ways that companies could get funds when they started. Thanks to the internet, and all the ways people can connect via it, the world has changed. Kickstarter and other sites have shown us that everyone can contribute to help budding ideas get new products and services off of the ground. This trend is not slowing down. In the 2010s, blockchain and cryptocurrency were also a big trend that has disrupted financial services.

It allowed everyday investors to make investments in ways they couldn’t before, such as buying cryptocurrencies for pennies or making profits during bull runs. Blockchain technology, which is the basis of cryptocurrency, was used to open up many investment options. People can now buy art, real estate and other assets through tokenization, which is the sale of one asset as smaller, digital representations. All of these changes have the effect of making institutions and other investment vehicles more accessible to the average person. Reddit users joined forces to increase the price of stocks to make it more expensive for hedge funds. This was the Gamestop story in 2021.

As more opportunities open up for venture capital, it will undergo the same transformation. RevenueCoin, for example, uses blockchain technology to enable users to easily invest in venture capital.

RevenueCoin is not like traditional VC firms that require large sums of money to direct investments in promising businesses. RevenueCoin customers can buy the native $RVC token they desire, and then the funds from token sales are donated to chosen companies.

Following the expansion of operations by the companies, the 10% profit they make can be used to purchase back and burn $RVC tokens. The act of purchasing and then burning the token artificially decreases its supply, driving up its price and creating a profit for the initial investors.

The investors are happy with this system because they can buy as much, or as little, $RVC they desire and as often as they wish. They also have a say in which specific companies are invested in as a result of RevenueCoin’s voting system. Finally, their original investment can be refunded and they have the option to sell tokens on cryptocurrency exchanges. For companies that do not want to deal with traditional VC firms’ stringent restrictions, this provides an alternative to funding.

RevenueCoin and other options on the marketplace will change the traditional way of VC. Each day, more people explore the possibilities of democratized investing. Startups will see that there are more options. As a result, the monopoly of large VC firms on the sector will diminish over time and the market will open up more.
