Investor FAQ
-
Smart Contracts & Transparency:
Smart contracts automate backend processes such as real-time NAV calculation and settlement procedures, reducing human error. Transactions are verifiable and visible on-chain, providing full transparency. OTORI exclusively invests in early-stage companies offering equity wrapped in digital assets (e.g., ERC20 tokens). This ensures all underlying assets are on-chain, allowing real-time tracking and portfolio NAV calculation.
Custody Solutions:
Investor funds in USDC and BTC are securely stored with Fireblocks, a trusted custodian and wallet provider for institutions.
Risk Mitigation:
Smart contracts undergo multiple independent audits. By keeping the architecture simple, vulnerabilities are easier to identify, ensuring higher security. OTORI is exploring how to bring the execution layer closer to a Bitcoin-native environment while building on Bitcoin EVM sidechains.
-
Exchange Listings:
OVT will be listed on both centralized and decentralized exchanges, enabling:
1. Peer-to-Peer Trading: Token holders can trade OVT on exchanges without impacting OTORI’s portfolio holdings.
2. Fiat Conversion: Exchange listings facilitate fiat on/off ramping, allowing OTORI to focus on portfolio management.
3. Liquidity and Flexibility: OVT eliminates extended lock-up periods typical in traditional VC funds, providing proportional ownership tokenization.
-
Purpose: OCT governs OTORI’s platform success, while OVT represents investment portfolios.
Revenue Sharing: OCT holders earn a share of OTORI’s success fees through staking.
Liquidity: OCT will also be tradable on exchanges, though its listing timeline may vary.
Conversion: Like OVT, OCT can be traded or converted to fiat via exchanges or custodians.
-
Sourcing Deals: Projects are sourced through Bitcoin Startup Lab and LemVega Capital, with whom OTORI has a partnership agreement.
Founding Team Expertise:
Gregory: Focuses on founder-market fit and relationship building.
Dan: Specializes in evaluating technology and product-market fit.
Investment Mandate: OTORI prioritizes blockchain/Web3 startups offering real-world utility and avoids gambling platforms, high-leverage trading, and volatile projects like memecoins.
Partnership Benefits: The collaboration with LemVega Capital provides access to high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) via Reg-D exemptions and allows OTORI to participate in larger funding rounds beyond the Seed stage while preserving independence and brand identity.

Partial Exits at Milestones:
At a 10x return post-vesting and listing, OTORI reduces holdings by 50% to realize partial gains.
Full Exits at High Multiples:
- At a 30x return, OTORI exits entirely, realizing the remaining gains.
Proceeds Allocation:
50% of exit proceeds are used annually to repurchase OVT from the secondary market. This increases token demand and supports price appreciation, rewarding holders.
Repurchased tokens are burned, reducing the total OVT supply.
Impact:
NAV may decrease in USD terms, but the token price remains stable—or increases if repurchased below NAV—due to the reduced supply.
This approach balances the interests of token holders who choose to exit and those holding long-term.
