I just received confirmation from Naval Ravikant, AngelList CEO, with the following statement: We didn't really announce this since a lot of it seems like behind-the-scenes inside baseball. It lets us know the legal boundaries of what's possible in the space and will inform our future products, but right now we're happy with the SecondMarket partnership - SM vets investors for sophistication, companies for background, and provides Broker-Dealer level protection and compliance. The /Invest feature on AngelList is working well so far. We do curate the opportunities to those with a high-quality lead investor, and to date we've announced 7 fundings, 14 are closed or in closing, 18 are currently open for Accrediteds, adding about one per day. We've received over $6M in commitments in the last Quarter in 915 separate transactions. We have 12,000 Accrediteds on AngelList, and via our SecondMarket Partnership, can reach another 20,000. Unlike others in the space, we don't think we can pick the winners - rather, it's a more open approach for any company with a high-quality lead investor. We also don't view it as a money-maker for AngelList - more of a community service. We also think it makes sense to augment it with our base service of introducing high-quality companies to sophisticated investors (VCs, Seed Funds, Professional Angels) - we currently drive 500-700 of those introductions per week, and drive about $10M / month there.
