Quick answer: A Slice is an ERC-721 NFT on Base that represents your proportional share of a pre-IPO fund offering. Each Slice is 1:1 backed by underlying equity in a separate legal structure. You can hold, trade, or split Slices when fund rules allow. Payouts from exits arrive in USDC.
Slices are how WLTH turns illiquid private-market allocations into fractional, transparent, tradable positions. Instead of locking capital for years with no exit path, eligible holders can list Slices on the WLTH marketplace when fund terms and buyer demand allow.

​
What is a Slice?

A Slice is a tokenized unit of ownership representing your exact share in a deal or fund:
  • Standard: ERC-721 NFT on Base (Ethereum L2)
  • Economic meaning: tokenized economic exposure to underlying pre-IPO equity
  • Not direct stock: no shareholder voting rights in the target company
  • Backing: 1:1 with equity held in an SPV or fund structure per offering documents

​
How Slices are created

  1. You subscribe to a live pre-IPO offering on WLTH.
  2. Capital flows into a fund structure that holds verified underlying equity.
  3. You receive a Slice NFT proportional to your investment.
  4. Slice metadata records your share, voting weight on exits, and status updates.

What you can do with a Slice

​
Payouts and exits

  • Distributions from dividends, partial exits, or full exits are paid in USDC to your wallet.
  • Exit votes: Slice holders may vote on liquidity opportunities per deal terms.
  • Partial exits: Slice metadata updates to reflect your remaining share.
  • Full exits: Slice may be marked complete after final distribution.

​
Liquidity: what “tradable” really means

Slices are designed for flexibility, but liquidity is conditional:
  • Fund-level lockups may block transfers after subscription.
  • You need a willing buyer on the marketplace.
  • WLTH does not guarantee bids or repurchase your Slice.

​
Security and custody

  • WLTH is non-custodial. Smart contracts handle transfers; WLTH does not hold your assets.
  • Use 2FA and consider a hardware wallet for larger holdings.
  • Review security best practices.
