🎯 Single-Point Failure Risk

  • Concentration Risk: Employees accumulate large positions in a single private firm, risking near-total financial exposure if the company fails
  • Opaque Valuations: Infrequent funding rounds make tracking fair value almost impossible
  • Limited Liquidity: Current secondary markets typically require high minimum tranches ($100k+) and complex board approvals, excluding most employees

​
🌈 The Backerville Solution

  • Diversified Exposure: Swap some of your private stock for a diversified basket of pre-IPO companies
  • Niches You Know & Care About: Exchange shares from your robotics startup for partial exposure to 20 other robotics companies
  • Permissionless: Participation doesn’t require sponsorship from your employer
The traditional approach forces employees to bet their financial future on a single outcome — an IPO or acquisition that might never come. Backerville transforms this concentrated risk into collective opportunity through our innovative village system.
