Fractional investing + live auctions 🤝

​aShareX​ is world’s first fractional auction platform for alternative investments

Fractional investment platforms have a big problem: arbitrary asset valuations.

​aShareX​ has solved this problem by combining fractional ownership with auctions.

It’s a novel concept. Auctions offer market-determined asset valuations with the potential to revolutionize how investors access high-value alternative assets.

How It works:

1. Browse upcoming auctions of unique treasures, like fine art, collectible cars, rare diamonds, and sports memorabilia.

2. Bid for fractional shares (or full ownership). You control your entry price. Minimum bids start at $1,000.

3. Vote. Shareholders decide whether to sell each asset annually. Unbiased 3rd -party appraisals help you decide.

Get started with the world’s first fractional auction platform for alternative investments.
