Platforms and services that enable fractional ownership and investment in alternative assets (e.g., physical collectibles like cars, art, real estate, or digital assets like NFTs) beyond traditional stocks and bonds, making high-value assets accessible to more investors.

Why now
The unbundling of traditional investment vehicles (like the S&P 500), the rise of NFTs familiarizing people with digital ownership, government money printing driving search for returns, and a general democratization of investing.
