the market before the market_

Pre-IPO price exposure on Robinhood Chain. Long or short private companies before they list, without owning a single share.

cat /etc/vorta/motd

Private companies stay private for longer than ever.

The value created in that time is real, and almost nobody can reach it.

Vorta lets people trade price exposure to that value before a company lists.

man vorta | sed -n '/HOW IT WORKS/,/END/p'
  1. 01

    operator registers a listing

    VortaDirectory records the company. VortaSignalFeed publishes a reference price per share from secondary-market data. Every update is bounded by a max-move guard and goes stale if it is not refreshed within the heartbeat.

  2. 02

    you pick a side

    Post USDG, choose long or short and a leverage. You fill at the reference price plus a small spread. Your position is sized in dollars, not in shares.

  3. 03

    the reserve takes the other side

    USDG in VortaReserveVault pays profits and receives losses and funding. Reserve holders and VORTA stakers earn from every trading fee routed by the kernel.

  4. 04

    the company lists, the market resolves

    When the company goes public the operator resolves the market at a final price. Every open position closes at that price, with no spread and no fee.

DISCLOSUREread me

exposure, not equity.

A Vorta position is a collateralised contract between you and VortaReserveVault. Its value follows an on-chain reference price for a private company. You do not own shares, you have no claim on the company, and the company is not involved. Reference prices are estimates drawn from secondary-market activity and can be wrong, late, or move sharply. Leverage magnifies losses and positions can be liquidated.
