CHICAGO, Aug. 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- GigaStar, a startup bringing YouTube Creators and Fans together as partners through its next-generation marketplace, has received interest from Ananke Capital as an investor looking to gain institutional exposure to the Creator Economy.

Through GigaStar Market, an SEC registered funding portal, which operates a crowdfunding platform under Reg CF, YouTube Creators can transform Fans into strategic investors by offering them a percentage of their YouTube channel's potential future revenue. Investors should familiarize themselves with the risks of loss, including liquidity risks, and the potential loss of their investment.

The secondary market is currently expected to launch in June of 2024.

"GigaStar is creating a new investment category by securitizing future revenue within the Creator Economy", said GigaStar CEO, Hazem Dawani. "Looking forward, we anticipate that more institutions like Ananke Capital will recognize the portfolio potential of YouTube channels as investable assets. GigaStar Market is the only regulated platform that can offer these assets today."

GigaStar is currently the only institutional-grade technology that achieves this goal.", said Tim Gorham, Principal of Ananke Capital.
