A token should carry real ownership rights, not just speculative upside. Every internet round gives investors both - exposure to the company’s upside through equity-backed tokens, and protection on the downside through decision markets.

Upside

Equity-backed tokens (Bedrock) tie your token to real company value.

Downside protection

Decision markets govern the treasury, so capital can’t be misused.

Upside - equity-backed tokens

Through Bedrock, your token is anchored to a real equity stake in the company, with enforceable rights behind it.
  • Direct linkage to enterprise value: the token is tied to real equity structures, reducing ambiguity about what the instrument represents.
  • A clear path in acquisitions: if the company is bought, value flows through equity to token holders.
  • Institutional readability: rights, entities, and obligations are explicit, so the model is easier to diligence.

Downside protection - decision markets

Through decision markets, the project’s treasury - raised funds, trading fees, and revenues - is governed by the market rather than founder discretion. As an investor, you can act, not just watch:
  • Open proposals: holders with 5% of supply can create a proposal on combinator.trade.
  • Treasury discipline by default: high-impact spends and structural changes route through market governance, not unilateral control.
  • Continuous signal: you can react as information changes, instead of waiting for periodic governance windows.
  • Credible recourse: transparent processes mean capital can’t be arbitrarily diluted or misused.

Together

Equity for upside, decision markets for downside. Combined, they give investors structured protection that an unstructured token launch can’t - a real claim on value, and a real say in how the money behind it is spent.
