Hi Product Hunt, 👋 Jacob from Visionrare here. Until very recently, I was a Venture Capitalist 💰 and today I'm proud to present to you Visionrare, the NFT-fuelled fantasy startup investing game. 🚀 Today we are launching out beta access, where we present our primary market place with YC W18-S20 companies. ⏰ For the first 48 hours the marketplace will be open to everyone who is interested. 📈 There will be 5 shares for sale per company at fixed prices, sold off on a first come, first serve basis. 💌 Buying at least one VisionShare makes you a beta user which means that you’ll have continued access to the platform until wider public launch. 🔗 After the initial 48 hours the beta will close and will only be available through referral and invite. We'd love for you to become a Visionrary and have your feedback!

Website looks nice! Not sure if I get the concept right, NFT is still a bit abstract for me.

@adrienduchateau Thank you! Great question. So NFTs stand for 'Non fungible tokens', basically a way to track ownership of unique things on the internet. Other than 'fungible tokens' like cryptocurrencies, each NFT token is unique and cannot be replaced by another token. On Visionrare, each startup has a limited set of VisionShares, e.g. fantasy shares. Each VisionShare is an NFT token on the blockchain. We use it for two things: 1) Keep track of who owns which VisionShare. This allows for true ownership. You'll be able to trade them on our platform, or use any external platform like OpenSea. It's a bit like collecting Panani cards of football players, but then for startups on the internet. 2) (Coming soon) Create a way to provably limit the supply of VisionShares. Because NFTs are 'smart contracts' on the blockchain, they can enforce certain guarantees. E.g. limit the supply by guaranteeing that 'Each company only has 100 VisionShares per funding round'. This creates the following dynamic in our game: 1) Players buy VisionShares of the startups they believe in. Startups that do well will get more interest, so the price of their VisionShare increases. 2) Players can decide to either hold on to their VisionShares to participate in the game, or trade them on the secondary market with other players. 3) Every month, we'll look at how well each startup on our platform has performed in the real world, based on metrics like e.g. proxy valuation. The best portfolios will be rewarded with a prize. Prize money comes from the sales of the initial VisionShares. Hope this helps! Let us know if you have other questions.

I love the idea! It’s a great way for people wanting to break in venture or at least interested by the industry to build their fantasy portfolio!

Hi Product hunt! We're super excited to share Visionrare with you. It's a mix between fantasy football and startup investing. As startup enthusiasts, we wanted a way to test our startup insights and compete with friends. Who’s best at picking winners, and do it early? With Visionrare, we took the game that we’re already playing using Excel to the next level. We wanted to make it look like fantasy football, but then for startups. You buy fantasy shares in the startups you believe in to build out a portfolio. Then, we keep track of these startups in the real world and give each startup a score based on how well they’re doing. The best portfolios are rewarded each month with the prize pool that we gathered selling the VisionShares. In this Beta, you can start buying your first VisionShares. In the next weeks, we’ll add more functionality like a secondary market to trade with other players, and finally launch the game by ~end of September. Hope you’ll like it! Any feedback would be much appreciated :)

I have been following the progress of Visionrare since early Alpha and can honestly say that the progress is stunning! Login + Checkout is incredibly butter-smooth. Really stoked to see what the future holds for Visionrare and really happy to be the first visionrare "investor" in Alloy and Whatnot :)
