Republic Launched Profit-Sharing Digital Asset on Avalanche

The Republic Note Is Getting Listed, Assets Are Getting Revolutionized

Republic wants to democratize access to private investments, so it’s listing its novel profit-sharing digital asset, the Republic Note, on Avalanche. The asset is set to be listed for secondary market trading on the Avalanche-powered trading platform INX.One on December 6.

“With Avalanche, the Republic Note is getting the foundation it needs to reach and scale with a global audience of investors… Choosing Avalanche goes far beyond the network’s strength, scale, and speed — it solidifies our longstanding partnership with Ava Labs, built on a shared vision of more inclusive financial markets.”

- Andrew Durgee, President of Republic

So what? Since 2016, Republic has empowered over 3M people worldwide to deploy over $2.6B into a diverse range of privately held ventures. The Republic Note is being supported by the Avalanche Foundation’s Vista program, which aims to accelerate the growth of tokenization and its role in OnFi by illustrating how blockchain improves the more manual, operationally-intensive, and opaque parts of the asset management lifecycle. A.K.A. The Republic Note is yet another step toward digitizing the world's assets.

Avalanche Watch: October Edition

Source: Avalanche

You know the old saying “where there’s a will, there’s a way?” At the Avalanche Foundation, that saying goes a little harder. Why? Because when it comes to Avalanche, for every will and every way, there’s a win. According to the latest issue of Avalanche Watch, the monthly Avalanche report by The Tie that shares notable data points across the ecosystem, October was no different.

What happened in October? We won’t spill all the juicy tea here…but a little taste can’t hurt 🤭

  • Disrupting the insurance and reinsurance markets
