VENTURESTAKING®

Shape the Future.
Don’t Be a Victim of It.

The future is often shaped by misfits, rebels, and troublemakers. VentureStaking® is the first game that lets anyone find them, back them, and learn from them — from the very beginning.

Waitlist is open. Be among the first to play.

“Are you in your late twenties, making decent money, but feel like your generation got locked out of the wealth-building opportunities your parents had?”
Real estate is unaffordable. Public markets feel like a casino. The real wealth creation is happening in private markets — and you’ve never been invited. VentureStaking is your invitation. $100 gets you in the same game as $10,000.
“Are you a college student who dreams of working in venture capital — but every job posting says ‘5+ years experience required’?”
How do you get experience if no one will give you experience? VentureStaking lets you build a real track record of founder discovery — before you even graduate. When you walk into that VC interview, you won’t just have a resume. You’ll have a portfolio.
“Are you a millennial sitting on savings who wants your money to mean something — not just grow, but actually build the future you want to live in?”
Index funds don’t change the world. You want your capital to matter. VentureStaking lets you fund founders solving the problems you actually care about — climate, health, education, access — and potentially profit when they succeed.
“Are you entrepreneurial-curious — fascinated by founders and startups but not ready to quit your job and start one yourself?”
You’re not sure if founding a company is for you. But you want to understand how it works from the inside — the decisions, the pivots, the breakthroughs. VentureStaking lets you follow real founders in real time. Think of it as a masterclass you can actually profit from.
“Are you the person who reads about billion-dollar startups and thinks — I saw that coming years ago?”
You spotted the trend before the headlines. You told your friends about it. You just never had a way to act on it. VentureStaking turns that instinct into something real.

Whether you have $100 or $10,000, whether you’re 22 or 62, whether you’ve invested before or never — if you believe the best founders can come from anywhere, VentureStaking® was built for you.

VENTURESTAKER PERKS

What You Earn by Playing

VentureStakers don’t just discover founders — they earn real advantages.

Priority Access
When a founder you VentureStaked raises a Seed Round, VentureStakers may receive priority access to invest — before the general public.
Valuation Discount
VentureStakers may receive up to a 20% discount on share price compared to Angels and VCs investing in the same round.
Equity in Doriot®
Every VentureStaker earns Equity Tokens in Doriot — the platform itself. By participating, you become an owner of the infrastructure. A $100/cohort player earns approximately 40 Equity Tokens per cohort. You’re not just playing the game — you own a piece of the game maker.
Venture Education
Access exclusive programs, seminars, and tools designed to sharpen your investor instincts — and your mental framework for evaluating risk, resilience, and what it actually takes to build something that lasts.
