Alt is on a mission to revolutionize investing by unlocking the value of alternative assets (collectibles first), a $60B+ market. Currently, we’re focusing on establishing ourselves as the dominant marketplace for trading cards, a $5B market, before taking on additional asset classes. Our platform enables users to exchange, invest, value, securely store, and authenticate their trading cards. And we envision a world where anything is an investable asset.
To date, we’ve raised over $100 million from thought leaders at the intersection of culture, community, and capital. Some of our investors include Alexis Ohanian’s fund Seven Seven Six, the founders of Stripe, Coinbase co-founder Fred Ehrsam, BlackRock co-founder Sue Wagner, the co-founders of AngelList, First Round Capital, and BoxGroup. We’re also backed by professional athletes including Tom Brady, Candace Parker, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Alex Morgan, Kevin Durant, and Marlon Humphrey.
Alt is a dedicated equal opportunity employer committed to creating a diverse workforce. We celebrate our differences and strive to create an inclusive environment for all. We are focused on fostering a culture of empowerment which starts with providing our employees with the resources needed to reach their full potential.
