Don't think it would introduce any hurdles related to protocol development-- you'd just segment those allocations into it's own bucket and leave them out of pubco if necessary. Costs aside, this should be at least as good as status quo, as it accesses capital and unifies both markets through the lifecyle of the token.

Suggesting this as a potential path to access a larger pool of capital. Crypto-native demand moves in cycles, so pairing crypto markets with US public equity markets could materially broaden participation, which moves the needle on lower market cap assets.

Wouldn't underestimate the size of US equity markets (see DAT success). Robinhood and Coinbase have broadly comparable MAUs, lots of other big retail brokerages exist, and there's more sophisticated capital which of course is harder to tap but has worked for DATs.

That said the cost and burden are significant. I'd expect this would only be attempted for projects in the >300m range, which is probably the top decile of projects.

@mcagney That’s a lot of machinery to repair a structural mismatch. PATI is designed so NAV drift, dual securities, and tender offers never arise, as the public instrument and the token remain 1:1 in perpetuity.

[Michael Oved @ovedm606]

Good question and probably the core one we will grapple with. Being a trailblazer in legal structure does impose upfront cost that creates value for the wider ecosystem.

That said, the PATI path doesn't require a full IPO. It can be done with Reg A+, at a fraction of the cost, though still not trivial. Over time, a platform that gets this design right should be able to productize it and offer it as a service to other protocols, amortizing much of that initial complexity.

Ultimately believe the benefits of public market liquidity vastly outweigh the cost of launching a PATI.

“Tokenizing public market equities is not interesting to users that already have easy access to Robinhood. What is exciting is tokenization of illiquid, long tail assets such as music royalty streams.” - @ovedm606 (paraphrased) #0xpo @0xProject
